Research and Practice Interests

My primary research focus lies in the intersection of big data analytics and healthcare informatics, particularly the application of machine learning and deep learning techniques. The continuous evolution of technology enables the acquisition of vast and reliable electronic healthcare databases. These databases serve as a valuable resource for developing automated models aimed at aiding healthcare professionals in decision-making processes. In recent years, fully automated models have emerged, offering physicians insights and predictions prior to medical procedures. Leveraging decades of patient data encompassing various health conditions and outcomes, electronic health records serve as rich repositories for constructing predictive models. These models, ranging from readmission risk assessments to mortality predictions, capitalize on the wealth of information stored in electronic health records. By harnessing big data analytics and machine learning methodologies, my research seeks to enhance healthcare delivery by providing timely insights into patient outcomes and prognosis. Ultimately, this work aims to optimize patient care, improve clinical decision-making, and contribute to the advancement of healthcare practices.
