My Research

Current position (Nov 2025 -)

Current I am a senior postdoc at ICAI Applied AI Accelerator (A3) lab of UMC Groningen. I am in the Predictive Analytics and Computer Vision focused wing of this brand new lab, which is embedded in the Dept. of Orthopaedics. I have the same research focus as what I found for myself during my TU/e days, but trying to add more of image data analysis tools in my arsenal.

Postdoc position (June 2023- Oct 2025)

While working as a postdoc at M&CS, TU Eindhoven, as a part of ITEA4 DAIsy project, I found my research “calling”/ the reason I am sticking around in academia: (pseudo) Causal ML and Uncertainty Quantification. I gained experience in project and stakeholder management while co-leading the workpackage of this project that focused on development of AI solutions for Major depressive disorder and Eating disorder.

Postdoc position (Sep 2021-May 2023)

I worked jointly at the Institute of Risk Assessment Science (IRAS) in Utrecht University and at UMC Utrecht. I am learned about exposome and cardiovascular risks, and used interpretable ML models to find urban exposomes which increased risks of mortality.

PhD research

During my PhD I worked on interpretable supervised machine learning approaches to deal with real world medical data, with the final goal of having computer aided clinical decision support system for medical professionals , and knowledge extraction from provided datasets.
