Khaberni - Student Mohammed Irshid from the College of Information Technology at Amman Ahliyya University has achieved a distinguished academic accomplishment by receiving a research grant within the Mitacs Globalink Research Internship 2026 program to participate in a research project titled:
“A Metaheuristic Algorithm for Breast Cancer Classification and Diagnosis”, which will be implemented at Thompson Rivers University in Canada.
This initiative is the fruit of efforts by the Jordan Source delegation to Canada in 2024, within the framework of the Youth, Technology, and Jobs (YTJ) project, which contributed to building a strategic partnership with Mitacs, and offering Jordanian students the opportunity to undergo a 12-week research experience in several Canadian universities, in advanced fields including artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, robotics, and modern technologies.
In this research project, student Irshid contributes to developing a smart algorithm based on Metaheuristic techniques, aimed at enhancing the accuracy of breast cancer classification and diagnosis, which supports the medical sector with innovative AI-based solutions.
