Extended reality is turning cancer research into a team sport
The Mixed-Reality tool for the Tumour Evolution Project is a unique, real-world application of design in cancer research.
Analysis of incidents on New Zealand beaches
The main hazard on beach incidents to humans occurring on open coast beaches is identified with the presence of rip currents, while other hazards related to beach activities tend to play a minor role.
Benefits of linking routine medical records to the GUiNZ longitudinal birth cohort: Childhood injury predictors
Combining self-reported longitudinal cohort data with routine healthcare data can help mitigate the limitations of each data type. Linking these datasets addresses missing data issues, reduces recall and information biases, and validates both data sources.
Mapping livability: the “15-minute city” concept for car-dependent districts in Auckland, New Zealand
The research critically examines the potential of micro-mobility options, such as e-scooters and e-bikes, to significantly expand zones deemed ‘livable’ for the study sites.
Estimating quality of life: a spatial microsimulation model of wellbeing in Aotearoa New Zealand
This research focuses on wellbeing as an indicator of quality of life, we aim to create a nationwide dataset that can be used to understand wellbeing in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Video compression for REACH Lab’s study of family resilience and wellbeing
The REACH Research Group investigates how couples and families can overcome emotional, attachment and relationship difficulties to effectively support each other and resolve conflicts to enhance their health and wellbeing.
Listening to equations: a tool for the audification of heteroclinic networks
Understanding the dynamics near heteroclinic networks is currently an active area of mathematical research, but the focus of the current project is somewhat different.
Automating Data Collection and Generation for The Rongowai Mission
ongowai (Rongo – to sense; wai – water) is an international collaborative mission hosting a next-generation Global Navigation Satellite System Reflectometry (GNSS-R) payload on board a commercial Q300 aircraft to collect climate data about New Zealand during flight.
Who Are The 1M and 1X? Police Engagement with Citizens in Mental Distress
Using Statistics New Zealand’s Integrated Data Infrastructure (IDI) would enable linkage between NZ Police, health and social sector data, to better understand citizens in mental distress.
Representation of Multimodel Data – A Challenging Task
The project began with a patient’s decision to donate her inoperable cancer tissue for research. Over the years, medical monitoring has enabled scientists to gather a large amount of information on the growth of cancer as well as its distribution in the patient’s body.
