I am a Technical Physician, specialized in algorithmic physiological signal analysis. I aspire to improve healthcare by bridging worlds between conventional medicine and engineering. Using software engineering I assess medical datasets to model and predict pathological patterns in respiration, neurological output and sleep related signals. After a successful collaboration between the University of Twente and Harvard Medical School during my master thesis project, the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) and the Cardiovascular and Respiratory Physiology (CRPH) faculty of Science Technology of the University of Twente appointed me a position as a PhD candidate. I am currently researching novel prediction features to identify respiratory pathologies from non-invasive signals.
