I’m a computational neuroscientist with a strong interest of a better understanding disease progression in Multiple Sclerosis by applying artificial intelligence tools to structural, functional, and diffusion-based neuroimaging and clinical data. I'm also passionate to leverage these tools to better understand the impact of menopause and pregnancy-related hormonal changes on disease in women with Multiple Sclerosis.

Associate Professor of Neurology and Biomedical Informatics

University at Buffaly, USA

I’m a computer scientist working with MRI analysis in MS for the last two decades, with a focus on figuring out how to translate and/or adapt research endpoints into clinical practice. While I’m cautious about AI, I’m also extremely excited about its potential to change the way we work with images and our ability to integrate with multi-modal data.
