01 About

Building computational tools for cancer research

I'm a student at UT Austin pursuing degrees in Computational Engineering (BS), Mathematics (BS), and Chemistry (BSA) with a minor in philosophy. I study the intersection of artificial intelligence, mathematics, and medicine. My research is centered around three goals: 1) to develop mathematical and computational tools for the modeling of clinical treatment, 2) to build intelligent systems with strong clinical reasoning abilities, 3) to translate and evaluate cutting-edge mathematics and technology for human health.

Currently conducting research at UT Austin's Center for Computational Oncology, NYU Grossman School of Medicine, and previously at MD Anderson Cancer Center and Harvard Medical School's Department of Biomedical Informatics.
