I am a MSc candidate at Queen's University as well as a Research Assistant in the Medical Informatics (Med-i) laboratory, advised by Dr. Parvin Mousavi. My main research interests are in computer vision, deep learning, and medical imaging. More specifically, my research focuses on using deep learning to detect prostate cancer in real-time during ultrasound-guided biopsy procedures. I am a recipient of the Robert Sutherland Fellowship at Queen's and the NSERC MediCREATE training award.
