I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as Deputy Editor at @Radiology_AI Journal (IF 13.2)!

There are two possible outcomes: if the result confirms the hypothesis, then you've made a measurement. If the result is contrary to the hypothesis, then you've made a discovery. - Enrico Fermi
Discovery of Neutrino - The 'Ghost Particles'👻 Scientists once thought they broke the laws of physics. Instead, they discovered the most elusive particles in the universe—neutrinos. This is the Story behind the Discovery of Neutrinos🧵 1/10
More than 80 years later, our nation stands united in honoring the immeasurable service and sacrifice of the brave Allied troops who fought at Normandy, France. We are forever grateful.

Happy Quantum Day! 🎉 Reflecting on my journey of discovery—quantum SVMs for COVID-19, QKD for DICOM security, & dual-energy quantum dots for PET-CT. Grateful for @NIH @theNCI @NIHDataScience 2024 win & excited for @ncats_nih_gov Quantum Sensing Challenge. DM for Med + Quantum!

AI in medical imaging is evolving—and I’m proud to be driving that shift. My work (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38871944/) tackles a critical gap: moving beyond static, single-timepoint 'lesion spotting' to deliver smarter, time-dependent prognostic insights from sequential disease data. Why?…

Small leakage in your superconducting qubits act like a tsunami in your #QEC circuit🌊... but you can solve it! Very happy to see our solution published in @PhysRevLett : journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/1… In 50ns, we can remove leakage without affecting the computational subspace much!❤️🩹

We have an opening for a clinical neuroradiology fellowship spot at Johns Hopkins starting summer/fall 2025. If interested please send an email with CV to [email protected]. Please share with anyone that may be interested!
Happy Match Day! There were 30+ radiology (20+ DR) positions unfilled this year in the Match, which I think is the highest since 2020 and predicts a relatively high match rate (perhaps >90% for US MD students).
Exploring Quantum Machine Learning in Radiology—bridging QC & healthcare AI. My latest work in Quantum Information Processing shows how QML can revolutionize diagnostics. Open to collabs at this cutting edge! link.springer.com/article/10.100… #QuantumComputing #AIinHealthcare
