Before studying medicine, he worked for five years in IT (Information Technology) as a developer of software to hardware interface and infrastructure.
His primary clinical and research interests are ultrasonography in prenatal diagnosis, maternal-fetal medicine, automation of ultrasound, and computer vision image analysis. His main research project is the Perception Ultrasound by Learning Sonographer Experience (PULSE) project, aiming to learn to develop novel imaging analysis (using machine learning and computer vision methods) that will aid operators and improve diagnostic pregnancy imaging, ultimately seeking to automate ultrasound analysis for clinical purposes. His research interests also include the utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) - Machine Learning (ML) to teach a machine how sonographers scan. His additional clinical and research interests are anomaly scanning, quality improvement, and cutting-edge ultrasound technologies.
