The lab is small on purpose. Everyone here owns a problem rather than a task, and the work sits at the same junction: machine learning doing the deciding, and control theory answering whether the thing that decides will hold.
Research AssistantM.Sc. Biomedical Engineering
Yalda works on trustworthy deep learning for healthcare, where being accurate is only half of what a diagnostic model has to be. Her interest is in models a clinician can interrogate rather than only trust.
Working onTrustworthy deep learning for medical image analysis.
Research AssistantB.Sc. Computer Engineering
Shahed comes to the lab from computer engineering and machine learning. She works on foundation models in diagnostics, and on the harder question of what they can and cannot be relied on to do in a clinic.
Working onFoundation models for medical diagnostics.
Research AssistantB.Sc. Electrical Engineering
Mohammed comes to the lab from electrical engineering and control systems, and brings state-space thinking to a problem usually handed to deep learning alone. The combination is the point rather than the decoration.
Working onA stroke source identification pipeline, using deep learning and state-space models.
Masters StudentM.Sc. Materials Science
Laith works where materials science meets machine learning, on making additive manufacturing produce parts that can be relied on. A printed part that fails in service is a materials problem and a detection problem at once.
Working onMachine learning for anomaly detection in 3D printed objects.
The department does not run a PhD programme, so the lab grows through research assistants, and I take one on when I have the funding for the position. That means openings appear when a grant does, rather than on a calendar. I also supervise MSc students at Qatar University.
Write to me anyway, if you want to work on AI for healthcare, agentic systems, control theory or robotics. A CV and a short note about what you want to work on is much easier to answer well than a general enquiry, and it means I know who to write to when a position does open.
