The Biomedical Signal and Image Computing Laboratory (BiSICL) is a multi-disciplinary research lab at UBC dedicated to computational research in biomedical applications. BiSICL was founded and is directed by Dr. Rafeef Abugharbieh of Electrical and Computer Engineering and Dr. Martin McKeown of Medicine. The laboratory's research objectives are to create and develop innovative techniques for computational processing, analysis, understanding, and visualization of biomedical data such as multi-modal radiological images and biological signals so that they can be applied in a clinically-focused, disease-specific manner. The uniqueness of the research conducted at BiSICL stems from the tight coupling between the ECE department, the faculty of Medicine, and UBC hospital spanning literally from the lab to the bedside. website
