About

I am an Associate Professor of research at Symbiosis Centre for Medical Image Analysis, Symbiosis International University in Pune, India. I also hold adjuct Assoc. Prof. position at the University of Cape Town, South Africa and adjunct Sr. Research Scientist position at the French National Institute of Health’s research laboratory (LaTIM, INSERM UMR 1101, Brest, France). My research theme seeks to develop an integrated research and educational framework for evaluation and treatment of muscle, bone and joint diseases and disorders in adult and pediatric population in a functional setting. I develop and implement clinical diagnostic devices and tools based on my expertise in AI, Joint Biomechanics, Machine Learning, Medical Image Analysis, Computational Modeling, Advanced imaging techniques, Mixed Reality, and Clinical Sciences. My global research focus is directed towards developing orthopedic tools through computational imaging, computational modeling, computational anatomy, experimental research, and device designs.

My fundamental research at SCMIA is focused on developing model-based frameworks to perform quantitative medical image analysis and also designing novel medical imaging sequences (on CT, MRI, and X-ray) for the same. Under fundamental research, my group tackle problems related to medical image acquisition (for e.g., image quality and resolution), image analysis (for e.g., image registration, neuro image analysis), and image synthesis (for e.g., MRI to synthetic CT). So far, we have developed multiple novel approaches such as machine learning-based multi-feature Gaussian Process Morphable Modeling (GPMM) tools (DMFC_GPM framework), novel and data-driven deep learning approaches (Multi-task, Multi-domain Deep Segmentation) to name a few. These frameworks are designed keeping the large-scale research applications in mind. Applied research at SCMIA is currently focused in two major group of disorders that affect the human body – neurological disorders and musculoskeletal disorders. Under applied research, we perform large-scale research using imaging and experimental datasets either publicly available or being generated within the collaborative scientific partners of SCMIA that are globally placed. Major clinical focus includes Parkinson’s disease, Bone and Joint disorders, Autism spectrum disorders, brain tumors, Cerebral Palsy, obesity, Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, and total joint replacement surgeries (hip, knee, shoulder, ankle etc.).
