FAROS Researcher at KCL awarded funding from the King's Global Engagement Partnership Fund
We congratulate FAROS post-doctoral researcher, Christopher E. Mower, on receiving funding from the prestigious King’s Global Engagement Partnership Fund.
This award will support Chris during two Visiting Scholar positions at KU Leuven, Belgium and Balgrist University Hospital, Switzerland. During his first visit to KU Leuven, Chris will join the Robot-Assisted Surgery group with Professor Emmanuel Vander Poortenand and develop AI approaches for robotic spine surgery. Later, Chris will join the Research in Orthopedic Computer Science (ROCS) group with Professor Dr. Philipp Fürnstahl to integrate his work into realistic clinical setups.
We wish Chris good luck during these positions and thank the King’s Global Engagement Partnership Fund for its support.
