Biography

I’m a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Clinical Epidemiology, Public Health, Health Economics, Medical Statistics and Informatics (EPICENTER) at the Medical University Innsbruck. Before coming to Innsbruck, I held postdoc positions at the Fraunhofer Institute for Cognitive Systems in Munich and the Charité Lab for AI in Medicine (CLAIM) in Berlin.

My research focus is on understanding if and when we can rely on predictive models that derive insights from complex healthcare data and help doctor’s make informed decisions. In particular, I am interested in how data heterogeneity and missing data — both ubiquitous in real-world medical practice — impact the performance of such models over time and at new healthcare sites.
