About

I specialize in using predictive modelling methods to derive insights from clinical data, thereby prolonging the life of patients. I am currently working on the CASSANDRA project aimed at developing a predictive approach to detecting complications after surgeries in collaboration with Berlin’s biggest hospital, the Charité. The challenge I face is to combine multiple data sources and employ different AI/ML techniques to get a risk assessment for doctors to increase the survival rate. More information can be found on my personal website.
