London Geometry and Machine Learning Summer School

2022-ongoing

LOGML (London Geometry and Machine Learning) aims to bring together mathematicians and computer scientists to work together on a variety of problems at the intersection of geometry and machine learning. There will be a selection of group projects, each overseen by an experienced mentor, talks by leading figures in the field, a variety of social events and a company networking night.

BRAINN Summer School Neuroscience Workshop

2024-08

Hosted by the University of Cyprus on 8-12 July 2024, the BRAINN Summer School offers a unique opportunity for both students and researchers from Cyprus and around the globe to delve into the fascinating world of neuroimaging, neurocognitive assessment, neurocognitive treatment, and non-invasive brain stimulation. Workshop on online neuropsychological assessment methods: remote assessment of cognitive performance and mental health using the Cognitron platform. Hands-on training in collecting and analysing data from online assessment.

Networking event

2021-09

The goal of the event was to present the research conducted at Imperial College London to current and incoming students (undergraduates and masters). This event aims to inspire students in their career path in academia and related fields and in their choice of PhD topics, and to introduce them to potential research that can be completed while being at Imperial.

Data Science Helper Team

2020-09 – 2021-06

I organised the data science helper team with the aim to helps students with data science related questions. The activity consisted of lectures, a discussion forum and clinic sessions, where students could get in touch with research project’s specific questions. More details in the teaching tab.

TEDx UniHeidelberg

2018-06

TED is a nonprofit organization devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. The main theme of the event was “doubt and dare”. Specifically, to doubt not only the opinions of others, but also their own, to try to look at things differently and consider other people’s opinions.

Invited Speaker

ECTRIMS

2023-10

I was invited to present my work on the detection of motor and cognitive impairment from online cognitive assessments of people with Multiple Sclerosis.

Inspiring Women in Data

2022-03

QuantumBlack invited me as speakers for a Data Engineering meetup event. I gave a talk on how to use multimodal data to establish the best predictors of Alzheimer’s progression, and discussed more broadly the potential and limitations of AI, and of its applicability in clinical practice.

Imperial College Data Science Society

2021-11

Artificial Intelligence (AI) provides powerful tools that can be applied in many different fields and that are capable of solving complex problems, even beyond what we could have imagined many years ago. In biomedical research, AI algorithms can be used to reach diagnosis, predict disease progression and patients’ survival, recommend patients’ treatments and much more, which is all fascinating. But the question is: will these algorithms be ever applied in clinical practice and, in turn, improve people lives?

Psychobiology: looking at the bigger picture

2020-11

The aim of the talk was to describe the potential of interdisciplinary research that crosses the boundaries of social and biological sciences, with a special focus on the field of psychobiology
