I am a ๐ป๐ฒ๐๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐๐ and ๐๐ผ๐ณ๐๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐น๐ผ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ on a mission to decode the brain and build technologies that restore human function. My career is built at the intersection of engineering, cognitive neuroscience, and biomedical imaging, where I specialize in transforming complex neuroimaging data (fMRI, fUS) into meaningful biological insights. My approach combines deep scientific understanding with hands-on software development. I have a proven track record of leading projects from concept to completion, creating robust analytical tools from scratch. ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ฐ๐ต๐ถ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ 1. ๐ฆ๐ผ๐ณ๐๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐น๐ผ๐ฝ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ & ๐๐น๐ผ๐ฏ๐ฎ๐น ๐๐บ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐: I designed and built the OpenfUS Analyzer, a comprehensive software suite for functional ultrasound analysis now utilized in research labs across Europe, the U.S., Canada, and Japan. 2. ๐๐ป๐ป๐ผ๐๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป & ๐๐ผ๐บ๐บ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฎ๐น๐ถ๐๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป: I have a demonstrated ability to translate scientific advancements into real-world applications, resulting in four international MRI patents that have been successfully adopted by industry. 3. ๐ฆ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ณ๐ถ๐ฐ ๐๐ผ๐ป๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฏ๐๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป: My work has contributed to 18 scientific publications in peer-reviewed journals. I am proficient in Matlab, Python, and C++, and my expertise spans the entire data lifecycle, from acquisition and preprocessing to statistical analysis and decoding brain activity. Currently, I am channeling my passion and expertise toward the rapidly evolving field of ๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ถ๐ป-๐๐ผ๐บ๐ฝ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ณ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ (๐๐๐๐). To meet the challenges of this next frontier, I am actively enhancing my skill set by completing a specialization in Deep Neural Networks. I believe these advanced methods are crucial for improving how we decode neural signals and estimate disease states in patients. I am actively seeking an opportunity to apply my unique blend of skills, core expertise in neuroimaging analysis, proven software engineering capabilities, and a growing proficiency in machine learning, to a team building the next generation of BCI technology to help individuals with neurological conditions.
Focusing on advanced analysis methods and signal processing techniques for functional neuroimaging data (fMRI, fUS). Exploring machine learning and deep learning methods as powerful tools to enhance signal extraction and pattern recognition in complex neural data. Actively seeking a position that leverages my core expertise in medical image analysis and software development, particularly in the BCI or clinical neuroscience fields.
