JayShahML


I am a PhD student in Wu-Lab, at Arizona State University, co-advised by Dr. Teresa Wu and Dr. Baoxin Li

Currently focused on developing novel deep learning models and algorithms for biomarker discovery, using multi-modal data and tackling issue of small datasets.

Broadly my research interests lie in Computer Vision, Medical Imaging and Deep Learning

Specifically working on solving following research questions:

  • Capturing Imaging signatures of Brain-Age in Alzheimer's Disease
  • Multi-modal AI investigating mechanisms, and prevention of Persistent Post-Traumatic Headache
  • Pathways linking neuropsychiatric symptoms with Alzheimer’s Disease biomarkers

These research projects are in joint collaboration with Mayo Clinic, Banner Alzheimer's Institute and Barrow Neurological Institute in Arizona respectively. My CV

Also the host of Jay Shah Podcast on YouTube where I invite AI engineers, researchers and practitioners to talk more their jounrney, insights from their experience and tips on getting started.
