I am currently a Research Scientist at 3M Health (Solventum) in the Speech Research and Development group. Our team’s research is focused on developing AI-driven healthcare solutions that leverage advanced speech and natural language processing (NLP) technologies to automate clinical visit workflows, enabling doctors to reduce documentation burden and focus more on patient care.
