Research Experience
  • Currently a Research Scientist at FAIR (AI at Meta) working on fundamental computer vision. Previously, a postdoctoral scholar in the Vision Group at Caltech, working with Pietro Perona.
Education
  • Ph.D. from ETH Zurich, supervised by Mehmet Yanik, Valerio Mante, Angelika Steger, and Benjamin Grewe.
Background
  • Research Interests: Machine learning and computer vision, particularly in their applications to scientific discovery in biology and medicine. Leveraging large-scale models and self-supervision to manage and interpret the rapidly growing volume of (biomedical) data. Focuses on reducing human effort in data annotation, minimizing bias, revealing hidden patterns in biomedical data, and developing new methods along the way.
