Imaging Scientist | Biochemical Imaging and Machine Learning Data Scientist

Profile Summary

I am a highly skilled Imaging Scientist and Data Scientist with a Ph.D. in neuroscience and over a decade of experience in cutting-edge research. My expertise spans optical microscopy, biochemical imaging, machine learning, and advanced data analysis, with a strong focus on multidimensional data segmentation involving spatial (XYZ), spectral (λ), and temporal (τ) dimensions. I have led innovative projects in myelin and lipid research, developing novel methodologies such as spectral microscopy using solvatochromic dyes to uncover biochemical abnormalities. My experience includes 2D and 3D image analysis of large datasets, implementing machine learning techniques for segmentation and prediction, and creating pipelines for handling complex imaging data. With a proven track record of publications in high-impact journals like PNAS and the Journal of Neurochemistry, I have honed my ability to solve complex problems and communicate findings effectively. My collaborative work spans academic institutions and potential industrial applications, particularly in optical microscopy, imaging data analytics, and biochemical research. I am passionate about translating scientific innovations into industrial solutions and am eager to contribute my skills to diverse projects in optical microscopy, imaging data analysis, and machine learning-driven insights.
