As I start my medical education, I am also involved in research, drawing on my computer expertise to find and introduce novel ways of applying technology in medicine, and helping doctors and patients communicate better. In today’s world, there is too much information that can be accessed, monitored, and recorded, and not enough methods and techniques in which this information can be analyzed, processed, and understood. By developing new algorithms and new schemas for communication, data presentation, and information storage, we can gain access to new ways of making our lives healthier, and our work more efficient.
