Research Interests
Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working alongside clinicians in many hospitals to support patient care, participating in numerous clinical trials, working in industry at Philips and IBM, and contributing to non-profit research initiatives. This diverse experience shapes my translational approach to research.
Theranostics
From new ideas in data acquisition to patient satisfaction, theranostics carries many opportunities to improve patient care using AI. We work on multiple fronts related to improved imaging of therapy, exploring how artificial intelligence can enhance both diagnostic accuracy and therapeutic outcomes in nuclear medicine.
Generative Models & Foundation Models in Clinical Decision Support
Developing agentic AI for personalized decision support in the context of 4P medicine (Predictive, Preventive, Personalized, and Participatory). We explore how large-scale foundation models can be adapted to individual patient needs, creating intelligent agents that assist in clinical decision-making while respecting the unique characteristics of each patient.
Towards Total AI in Radiology
Working towards comprehensive AI integration across the entire radiology workflow, from image acquisition and reconstruction to interpretation and reporting. This initiative aims to create seamless AI-assisted systems that enhance radiologist efficiency while maintaining and improving diagnostic accuracy.

Improving Outcomes in Obstetrics
Applying AI and advanced imaging techniques to improve maternal and fetal health outcomes. Our work focuses on developing predictive models and decision support tools that can help clinicians make better-informed decisions in prenatal care and delivery.
Bayesian Statistics
Promoting Bayesian approaches to avoid many cognitive biases in data handling and clinical decision-making. This framework provides rigorous methods for making decisions under uncertainty, incorporating prior knowledge with new evidence to support more rational and transparent clinical reasoning.
