Implementation of AI for cardiovascular disease
Research interests
My research focuses on implementation of AI-assisted cardiovascular diagnostics and digital health technologies to improve access to cardiovascular care. Current work explores how artificial intelligence can be responsibly integrated into clinical workflows. Equity and access to healthcare are important themes across my research projects, which focus on both low-resource settings and European populations with a high cardiovascular burden of disease.
