Research interests: As a physician with a background in clinical outcomes, I have a keen interest in the field of neuro-oncology. Throughout my doctoral studies, I have dedicated my efforts to exploring innovative and rigorous quantitative solutions to the challenges that arise in this area of medicine. My research focuses on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) methods to leverage diverse data sources in order to generate predictive models that enable personalized medicine. Within the Designated Emphasis in Computational Precision Health program, I aim to utilize AI to analyze genetic, imaging, electronic health, and patient-centered data, including quality of life metrics, to gain new insights into brain tumor pathogenesis and evolution. I also seek to identify novel prognostic biomarkers and develop more effective therapeutic targets. Ultimately, my goal is to contribute to the development of AI-based tools that can aid clinicians in delivering more effective treatments and improving healthcare delivery in the brain tumor space.
