Hi! I am a post-doc researcher in AI interpretability for bio-medical research and discovery. I sit on the bridge between biomedicine and technology, with the aim of discovering how AI can enrich our understanding of pathologies.
I hold a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Geneva and my Ph.D. dissertation received the best thesis award from the IEEE Technical Committee on Computational Life Sciences. I also hold a MPhil in Machine Learning, Speech and Language from the University of Cambridge.
This website hosts a collection and summary of my work, talks and hints on the small habits that keep me living a happy and satisfying life.
Latest Talks
I’m mentoring Task 1 on the MICCAI Hackathon 2022, with a brand new challenge on how to assess data shift due to multiple annotators with different biases! Check this up here.
