Bio
I am a scientist with a strong academic and technical backgrounds and diverse experiences in signal processing, image processing, and artificial intelligence. I earned my B.Sc. degree in Biomedical Engineering (EE major) in 2012, followed by an M.Sc. in Biomedical Imaging (image/signal processing major) from Åbo Akademi BioImaging Master's Degree Program. Later, I obtained a Ph.D. degree in Medical Physics and Engineering (Machine Learning and Health Sensing Major) from the University of Turku, Finland, in 2018, building a solid foundation in the field of computer science, health technology and medical imaging. I currently serve as an Adjunct Professor of Health AI within the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Turku, Finland. My current research interests encompass a wide range of topics, including generative AI for multi-dimensional medical image data, applied machine learning and deep learning, privacy-preserving ML, and bioinstrumentation. This diverse repertoire enables me to approach projects comprehensively and deliver high-quality results.
My career journey has been enriched with valuable roles and positions. Prior to joining Stanford University, I served as a Principal Lecturer in Artificial Intelligence at Turku University of Applied Sciences (TUAS), where I honed my skills in teaching and mentoring. As a Senior Researcher at the University of Turku, I contributed to groundbreaking health sensing and machine learning research projects and explored novel aspects of biosignal processing and medical imaging for a range of applications. Additionally, I had the privilege of working as a Research Scientist at Precordior Oy, where I applied my expertise in health sensing using smartphones.
As I continue my journey in the field of biomedical engineering and artificial intelligence, my goal remains to contribute significantly to scientific advancements and to make a positive impact on human health and well-being. I am eager to embrace new challenges, collaborate with exceptional minds, and further my exploration of innovative technologies and methodologies to push the boundaries of scientific understanding.
