Healthy City Lab / About Us
Welcome to Professor Sayeh Bayat's research group at the University of Calgary. Our team is dedicated to human-centered machine learning and advanced digital technologies, working to create personalized health solutions, develop new care models, and drive research that leads to tangible, impactful innovations. Our mission goes beyond advancing technology—we aim to reshape how health is perceived, measured, and managed, making it more efficient, sustainable, and equitable in our cities.
The changing human-environment relationship reveals significant information about people's health and well-being. As digital information grow in our cities, new approaches to studying the interconnectivity between the human-environment relationship and human health are emerging.
At the same time, the worldwide urbanization process and the ageing population are representing new challenges for cities and governments. The cities are looking for ways to provide services to their citizens in an effective and efficient manner.
The mission of the Healthy City Lab – a research team directed by Dr. Sayeh Bayat – is to study this interconnectivity through digital technology, advanced data analytics and human-centred machine learning. Our mission is to work toward intelligent, scalable and sustainable technological solutions.
