Mohamed Abul Hassan, Ph.D.

Biography

Mohamed Abul Hassan is a Postdoctoral Researcher with the Biomedical Engineering Department at the University of California, Davis.  His research aims to improve medical decision-making, enhance patient outcomes, and streamline healthcare processes using machine learning, computer vision algorithms. This extends to working with novel medical imaging modalities and unstructured clinical data, analyzing patterns, and providing recommendations to healthcare providers. In the past eight years, he has worked on unique healthcare projects addressing clinical needs for surgical guidance, disease diagnosis, and remote health monitoring.

Mohamed believes that healthcare should be a universal enabler, transcending barriers and making health services accessible to all, regardless of their geographic, economic, or social status.
