PI (20%) on CAPCaT/NHLBI grant: “Quantitative Anemia Detection” (01/01/2021–06/30/2022)
Implemented and trained machine learning algorithms to support paper-based electrophoresis for integrated anemia and hemoglobinopathy detection as part of point-of-care diagnostic development. The work involved preparing model-ready inputs from experimental outputs and iteratively improving predictive performance for clinical screening use cases. This effort focused on using learned patterns to enhance accuracy of test results derived from electrophoresis readouts. • ML algorithm training and iterative model improvement • Integration of AI/ML with paper-based electrophoresis diagnostic pipeline • Development for anemia and hemoglobinopathy detection workflows • Optimization for point-of-care screening performance
