Adri\u00e0 Casamitjana<\/strong> (Sant Juli\u00e0 de Ramis, 1991) is a postdoctoral researcher that joined VICOROB on January \u201824 to work on medical image analysis.<\/p>\n

He holds a Ph.D in Signal Processing with his thesis on \u201cStudy of early stages of Alzheimer’s disease using magnetic resonance imaging\u201d<\/em> (Dec-\u201919) under the supervision of Dr. Ver\u00f3nica Vilaplana at Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Catalunya. Prior to that, he obtained a Telecommunications Engineering degree (Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Catalunya, 2009-2015) and a MSc. in Signal Processing (Kungliga Tekniska H\u00f6gskolan, 2014-2015).<\/p>\n

During his first postdoctoral stay at University College London (2020-2022), he joined the ERC project \u201cBuilding Next-Generation Computational Tools for High Resolution Neuroimaging Studies\u201d (PI: J.E.Iglesias) . There, he developed NextBrain, a probabilistic atlas from the 3D histology reconstruction of 5 hemispheres containing 333 ground-truth labels \u2013 check https:\/\/github-pages.ucl.ac.uk\/NextBrain\/#\/home<\/a> for more details. After that, he was awarded with a \u201cMargarita Salas\u201d grant from the Spanish Ministry of Science, University and Innovation that allowed him to visit two different labs at University of Barcelona: BCN-AIM (PI: Karim Lekadir) and BIG (PI: Roser Sala-Llonch). There he investigated the multimodal and longitudinal modeling of different brain diseases.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

His main interest is in using artificial intelligence tools for image analysis to support decision-making systems. Currently, in VICOROB, he is working on brain image analysis to study dementia-related diseases (Parkinson\u2019s disease, Alzheimer\u2019s disease, etc.), with focus on image fusion methods for multimodal analysis. Moreover, in collaboration with the Hospital Clinic de Barcelona, he is working on AI-based tools for automatisation of routine clinical processes.<\/p>\n
