Research Summary
I have a special interest in interfacing clinical outcomes and multimodality radiographic biomarkers using automated processing methods and machine learning and integrating these into the brain metastasis clinic. I am working on the development of quantitative PK/PD imaging methods and ways to translate and incorporate these into future clinical trials. It is my mission to ensure recruitment and retention of underrepresented patient populations into clinical trials.
