Overview
As a physician scientist focused on artificial intelligence (AI) applications for neurologic disease, my ongoing career goal is to combine clinical excellence in neuroradiology with cutting-edge AI research. My primary research interest lies in the use of innovative AI techniques to help extract clinically useful information from multimodal health data with a focus on neuroimaging. Modern neuroimaging studies, most notably multi-sequence MRI, are amongst the largest and most complex types of health data that are routinely acquired for patients with neurologic disorders. I believe that modern AI tools have enormous potential to help extract new, clinically useful information from complex neuroimaging studies, and through integration with other types of health data, will ultimately improve diagnosis, management, and treatment monitoring for patients with neurologic disease.
