Research interests

I am currently working on the development of artificial intelligence models for the analysis of medical images with the ultimate goal of transferring these tools to the clinical scenario as support systems for different actors in the medical field.

As part of this process, I focus on the validation and analysis of their algorithmic fairness prior to their effective integration with the other components of health information systems. To carry out these tasks I essentially use Python with libraries such as scikit-learn, Keras, PyTorch and django.

In line with this work, we recently published the first open access database of dermatological images collected entirely in Argentina in the ISIC Archive and in the journal Scientific Data. This collective effort was motivated by the need to increase Latin American representation in the databases used in the development of Artificial Intelligence models, which is essential to ensure proper performance of the same in this population.
