PhD student (Bioinformatics)

Multi-modal spatial-omics analysis 
(i.e. histology whole slide images & spatial transcriptomics). Integrating spatial gene expression and pancreatic tumour morphology (multi-modal spatial-omics analysis) to predict tumour subtypes and therapeutic vulnerabilities

I am a first year PhD Candidate at Saur Lab (TranslaTUM), Peng Lab (Helmholtz Munich). Before joining as a doctoral candidate, I was a researcher at Boston University, School of Medicine (BUSM), USA, working on developing image biomarkers of lung squamous premalignant progression. I got my master’s degree in computer science from Rutgers University, USA. My master’s thesis involved developing methods for automatic cardiac segmentation using multi-modal data. My research interests are specifically focused towards deep learning and medical image analysis. I aim to become a research scientist bridging the gap between state of the art academic research and it’s huge translational potential in biomedical industry.
