This week I started shadowing Dr. Martin Prince and working with Dr. Eunji Choi as my research mentor. It was a wonderful, fast-paced week with a lot of learning. With Dr. Prince, I had a chance to evaluate MRIs of polycystic kidney disease. I learnt the anatomy of the abdominal cavity and more about the AI model used to automatically annotate each organ. I also learnt about how the model could be improved and started contributing to a research project to improve the performance metrics of the model. As a BME student with some background in AI, I found this very interesting and informative. I am excited to continue contributing towards the project and learning more about patient cases from Dr. Prince.
I had a meeting with Dr. Eunji Choi on Monday to discuss my research project on lung cancer. We will be looking at the susceptibility to lung cancer in LMICs based on data from Demographic Health Surveys. We will then compare it to existing risk prediction models and the incidence of lung cancer in India. The hope is to publish some of our results as a report. I am very excited to get started on this project and hope to have more updates on this next week.
