Ontario Tech acknowledges the lands and people of the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation.

We are thankful to be welcome on these lands in friendship. The lands we are situated on are covered by the Williams Treaties and are the traditional territory of the Mississaugas, a branch of the greater Anishinaabeg Nation, including Algonquin, Ojibway, Odawa and Pottawatomi. These lands remain home to many Indigenous nations and peoples.

We acknowledge this land out of respect for the Indigenous nations who have cared for Turtle Island, also called North America, from before the arrival of settler peoples until this day. Most importantly, we acknowledge that the history of these lands has been tainted by poor treatment and a lack of friendship with the First Nations who call them home.

This history is something we are all affected by because we are all treaty people in Canada. We all have a shared history to reflect on, and each of us is affected by this history in different ways. Our past defines our present, but if we move forward as friends and allies, then it does not have to define our future.

Background

Professor Carolyn McGregor AM is the Dean of the Faculty of Business and IT. Previously, she held the title of Research Chair in Artificial Intelligence for Health and Wellness and is a two-time Canada Research Chair in Health Informatics. She is the Founding Director of the Joint Research Centre in Artificial Intelligence for Health and Wellness between Ontario Tech University and University of Technology Sydney, Australia. Dr McGregor AM has led pioneering research in Big Data analytics, artificial intelligence, deep learning, internet of things, stream computing, edge computing, temporal data mining and cloud computing. She now progresses this research within the context of critical care medicine, precision public health, mental health, astronaut health and military and civilian tactical training. She is the inventor and lead on two international award-winning AI driven Big Data analytics platforms for health and wellness, Artemis and Athena. She was awarded membership in the Order of Australia (AM) for her significant service to science and innovation through health care information systems. She was named a Women Leader in Digital Health by Digital Health Canada

She has been awarded over $16 million in research, consultancy and infrastructure funding and has led multiple large research programs including a multi-million dollar First of A Kind (FOAK) research program with IBM and a $3M project within the FedDev Health Ecosphere Innovation Pipeline project. She has over 190 refereed publications, 3 patent in multiple jurisdictions and has established two startup companies resulting from her research. She has extensive research collaborations in Canada, Australia, UK, USA, Russia and India. She has also been called upon to advise various government working groups in Canada. She has received many awards for her research.

Her Artemis platform was selected as one of 5 inaugural Pathfinder projects for Ontario by the Vector Institute and precommercialisation of her Artemis platform was a flagship project of the $30 Million Health Ecosphere Innovation Pipeline project in Ontario.

She has provided strategic consultative support to Ontario Shores Centre for Mental Health Services and Providence Care in the area of Patient Journey Modelling to support their transition to new electronic health records and in her current role as Research Chair in Artificial Intelligence for Health and Wellness between Ontario Tech and Ontario Shores she is leading big data and artificial intelligence based research to reduce incidences of patient aggression and assist staff with new approaches to train for situations when it does occur.

She currently leads two research studies on the International Space Station for new approaches to astronaut health monitoring.

She has successfully completed two Department of National Defence IDEaS research contracts to progress a new solution for Pre-deployment Acclimation Strategies and Resilience Assessment and Techniques for Extreme Climatic Conditions Using Ontario Tech’s one of a kind ACE Facility utilizing ACE’s Extreme Climate Chambers.

She has been the recipient of multiple Early Career Researcher Excellence Awards and Senior Researcher Excellence Awards at Ontario Tech.

In 2021-22 she is serving as the Vice President, Member and Student Activities of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology society. and the IEEE Computer society’s representative to IEEE Brain. In 2022 she was appointed a Founding co-Chair of the IEEE Public Safety Technology Initiative.

In 2017 she was featured in the 150 Stories series commissioned by the Lieutenant Governor of Ontario and the Government of Canada to commemorate the 150th year anniversary of Ontario.

In 2015 she was awarded the Advance Global Australian award for Technology Innovation, an award for Australian diaspora.

In 2013 her Artemis research project was awarded the Ingenious Award in the Not for Profit category by the Information Technology Association of Canada.

In 2012 an Artificial Intelligence in Medicine paper she co-authored with a former PhD student in 2007 was recognised as the 3rd most cited article in that journal in the six years since 2007.

In 2008 she was awarded a multi-million dollar IBM First of a Kind Research (FOAK) Award. In 2009 she received the IBM Infosphere Innovation award for her UOIT based team’s role in project Artemis. In 2011 she was one of four international innovators featured in the IBM Centennial “Wild Ducks” video, also now available on YouTube.

She was the first Australian to be invited to complete a prestigious three month research internship with IBM's TJ Watson Research Center in Yorktown, NY, usually only offered to American researchers while she was completing her PhD.

    University-driven Big Data analytics research gains new Australian partners

    | February 5, 2018

    Since beginning in 2009 with the support of IBM and first tested at SickKids in Toronto, Ontario, the Artemis Project, Dr. McGregor’s intensive-care neonatal health informatics research, has evolved into a global network of health-care experts and organizations. In December 2017, Artemis welcomed its first two collaborative partners in Australia: the Western Australia Department of Health and the Pawsey Supercomputing Centre in Perth. Australia’s Seven News documented Artemis developments for television news.
