Developed by faculty and students, it helps medical professionals connect
A new foundation for connecting health researchers is in place through a project by University of Northern British Columbia students, faculty and staff.
The HRI Connect portal was created in Dr. Waqar Haque’s Business Intelligence Research Group lab. Haque, a UNBC professor in computer science and commerce, brought together a mix of eight UNBC graduate and undergraduate students who worked on the extracurricular project at various times over an 18-month development period, UNBC states in a press release. The project received support through the Office of Research and Innovation and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council.
As a part of the development team for HRI Connect, students pursued the practical application of skills and further enhanced their knowledge base. The Health Research Institute’s administration team was excited to collaborate with Haque and the student team on the project. The HRI Connect initiative also leaves a lasting impact on the UNBC students that participated on the development team.
