There are interesting things happening in my avocational, post-doctoral academic pursuits. We did a couple of projects with an important AI/ML research professor at ITESM Guadalajara during my PhD at UNL. When we ran into a Biology professor at Gannon University in my work at Thrive Bioscience who had a need for our instruments, but not a lot of resources, we were able to work together to produce results for all three parties: Thrive ran images for an experiment at Gannon which were sent to ITESM for analysis with AI. Gannon and ITESM received academic benefits in terms of research suitable for publication and student projects while Thrive was able to demonstrate that third parties were uniquely able to produce meaningful results from the outputs of the Thrive instrument used in the experiment. We are hoping we can do more projects like this with these and other institutions in the near future.
