Research and Creative Activities Summary
Our research laboratory creates multi-omics prediction models for personalized cancer diagnosis and treatment. I serve as the principal investigator for the MEDomics Consortium (www.medomics.ai). Our group has active research activities in quantitative imaging, natural language processing and the creation of prognostic machine learning models. Our informatics efforts use a wealth of digital information to build point-of-care artificial intelligence tools aimed at assisting physicians in the clinic. Novel algorithms are being developed to produce interpretable multi-criteria analyses using clinical, imaging and genetics data..
