Engineering for Life Our vision is to foster the revolution in personalised healthcare, responding to evolving regulatory requirements and contributing substantially to reducing the cost of innovation in healthcare in an ageing population. You are here Home Engineering at Sheffield Research and Innovation Engineering for Life News and Case Studies Professor Guy Brown and Dr Ning Ma with the CIDRZ team at the field recording site at Kanyama Level One Hospital, Lusaka. Computer Science academics strengthen AI health research links with the Centre for Infectious Disease Research in Zambia (CIDRZ) Dr Ning Ma and Professor Guy Brown from the School of Computer Science recently visited Zambia to initiate a second project that will research the potential of using AI analysis of cough sound to screen for tuberculosis (TB). Strengthening health research The University of Sheffield-led study found PP mesh fibres became stiffer and showed signs of degradation 60 days after implantation, as seen in this 3D tomography image. Vaginal mesh scandal: new evidence reveals further failings New evidence of the failings of the material at the centre of the vaginal mesh scandal has been revealed by a major study by researchers at the University of Sheffield. New findings New vaccine-making process could transform pandemic response Researchers at the University of Sheffield have been awarded funding for their infectious disease technology that could make life-saving vaccines more readily available to the world. Making vaccines Our research centres Insigneo Institute for in silico medicine The Insigneo Institute for in silico medicine is Europe's largest research institute dedicated entirely to the development and use of computational medicine technologies to transform healthcare. Cutting edge research CATCH The Centre for Assistive Technology and Connected Healthcare is a translational research centre at the University of Sheffield. We research, develop, evaluate and implement new technologies to enable people to live well and age well. CATCH
