Kharkiv National University of Radio Electronics and the University of Warwick (UK) won an
international scientific project REWARD under the innovative UK-Ukraine University Twinning Initiative.
Research England has teamed up with Universities UK International (UUKi) to support an innovative
UK-Ukraine University Twinning Initiative. The REWARD project is one of 33 being discussed
at the House of Lords, to mark the one-year anniversary of the Twinning initiative – an institution-to-institution collaboration model which allows universities around the world to support their Ukrainian counterparts in real, concrete ways. It is funded by a £5m grant from Research England, administered by Universities UK International (UUKi). Under the REWARD project scientists from the University of Warwick (UK) and the Kharkiv National University of Radio Electronics (NURE) in Ukraine are developing AI software that will help medics understand which patients require immediate treatment, due to life-threatening wounds that might not be obvious with the naked eye. The state-of-the-
art technology enables users to feed data from a CT scan to a computer programme, which will help medics make quick decisions on which of the injured require most immediate treatment.
Coordinators of the project from NURE side: professor Kyrylo Smelyakov and associate professor
Anastasiya Chupryna.
