His postdoctoral research, funded by the Ministry of Emergency Management and Climate Readiness, British Columbia, Canada, focuses on identifying the most
effective methods for evaluating the economic, social, and environmental benefits of disaster mitigation investments.
I have a funded PDF position available in the Algorithms Optimization and Control Lab (AOCL) at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada.
We’re working with the Drone Transport Initiative (https://dronetransport.med.ubc.ca) to deliver medicine and blood products to and from remote communities using autonomous drones. This position involves developing autonomy algorithms for these drones.

Care robots have the potential to offer useful support in long-term care. We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Fellow with a strong background in computer science or engineering to lead the technical development and real-world implementation of autonomous mobile robot assistants in long-term care (LTC) settings. The Fellow will work at the intersection of robotics, human–robot interaction (HRI), user-centred design, and implementation science, in close collaboration with industry partners and people with lived experience. Under the supervision of Dr.

I'm currently working on monitoring the microbial interaction within novel biogas upgrade systems. These systems were built upon anaerobic digestion technology, coupled with an electrocatalytic platform, membrane technology, or microbial electrochemical systems. My research focuses on characterizing and modelling the microbial activities in these reactors using metagenomics, metatranscriptomics, and metaproteomics.
Mechanical behavior and time-dependent degradation of rock bridges: experiments, numerical modeling, and data analysis
Develop the theory and algorithms for curved meshing techniques that will improve the accuracy of high-order adaptive finite element simulation, and design the software architecture for implementing them.
Development of structural health monitoring approaches for wind turbines in seismic-prone areas
Dr. Jonathan Eaton is a Post-Doctoral Fellow in the Department of Civil Engineering, where he is serving as Executive Director of the UBC Disaster Resilience Research Network (drrn.ubc.ca) – a transdisciplinary group of researchers committed to inclusive and equitable disaster research. Dr. Eaton is a socio-cultural anthropologist with a focus on heritage, the anthropology of space and place, and the anthropology of disasters.
1) Qualitative analysis of Canadian 2SLGBTQ+ youth online focus groups, describing the experience of coming out to parents/caregivers. The study population also included children of first-generation immigrants from South and East Asia. The aim is to create a culturally-appropriate resource site that will help improve parental connectedness and communication during the coming out process.
2) A study of challenges and support to healthcare access in immigrant youth.
3) A study of a pregnancy prevention intervention for transmasculine and non-binary youth assigned female at birth.
