Biography

I am currently a senior post-doctoral research fellow at the Department of Biomedical Informatics, Harvard Medical School, where I am working with Prof. Pranav Rajpurkar. I co-lead the Medical AI Bootcamp (for Harvard, Stanford, and MIT students and medical doctors all around the world).


I develop AI systems for healthcare that span patient communication, clinical decision-making, and model reliability. Specifically, I build (1) generative tools that translate complex diagnostic information into accessible formats for patients, (2) multimodal models integrating medical imaging with clinical records for diagnosis and treatment planning, and (3) methods ensuring AI reliability and efficiency across diverse populations and clinical settings. This positions AI not as a replacement for clinicians but as infrastructure for continuously improving healthcare.
