Speaker Bio
I’m a first-year master's student studying computer science at the University of Toronto (UofT) under the supervision of Dr. Anna Goldenberg. Before joining UofT, I studied biomedical engineering with a specialization in AI at the University of Waterloo. My research interests include digital health, wearable technology, time series forecasting and more. Currently, my research is to utilize AI-based methods to understand pregnancy-related physiology such as symptoms, complications and delivery readiness. The end goal of this study is to detect and track pregnancy-related symptoms at an individual level, and potentially provide clinicians with insights from data to improve the overall pregnancy experience. As an ML & healthcare researcher, I would like to bridge the gap between AI and healthcare and make an impact in the healthcare field.
