About me

As an AI Researcher at NeuroCare.ai, I work on managing and organizing datasets, conducting literature reviews, and developing deep learning algorithms. I also focus on implementing and testing these algorithms on large datasets to create reliable solutions.

Between 2022 and 2023, I was a Research Assistant at the Artificial Intelligence Diagnostics Lab. My work centered on 3D MRI analysis for brain tumor segmentation and treatment planning, ensuring data precision and developing tools in close collaboration with medical professionals.

In 2022, during my time as a Research Scholar at the National Center of Robotics and Automation, I contributed to defect detection projects using deep learning. I worked with engineers and developers to enhance model performance and was involved in a separate project on cloud resource allocation, gaining experience in research workflows and technical writing.
