April Khademi

April Khademi is Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Ryerson University, Affiliate Scientist at St. Michael’s Hospital and Principal Investigator of the Image Analysis in Medicine Lab (IAMLAB), which specializes in the design of image analysis and machine learning software tools for Pathology and Radiology images.

April mainly focuses on the development of AI algorithms for neurodegenerative disease in magnetic resonance images, and renal as well as breast cancer disease in digital pathology images.

To create clinically relevant, robust algorithms that operate on large, multicentre datasets, April utilizes an interdisciplinary design philosophy to develop innovative image analysis and machine learning tools for medical images, that rely on biomedical engineering domain knowledge grounded in physics, medicine, engineering and computer science.
