OT1 student successful in Tech Hackathon

 

Congratulations to Yolanda Cheung, a first-year MScOT student who successfully competed in the FIBRE Wearable Tech Hackathon to create a solution for pressure injuries. Yolanda’s team with members hailing from Sona College of Technology (India) was awarded with third place and a sponsored prize courtesy of KITE-UHN.

Professor Emily S. Ho described this as a wonderful initiative where students applied their foundational learning to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and innovation. Big thanks to Erica Dove (OS&OT Teaching Assistant, RSI PhD Student) for strongly encouraging student participation in this initiative. Congratulations Yolanda and special thanks to Erica!
