Hello, I'm Audrey! I'm an M.D.-Ph.D. candidate and graduate student researcher at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai as part of the Medical Scientist Training Program (M.D.-Ph.D. Program). I integrate clinical and technological perspectives at the intersection of surgical robotics and machine learning to develop translational technologies that improve surgical practice.
I am a Ph.D. candidate in Biomedical Sciences with a concentration in Artificial Intelligence and Emerging Technologies, where I am advised by Benjamin Rapoport, M.D., Ph.D.. I am also affiliated with the Mount Sinai BioDesign Program of the Department of Neurosurgery, a medical technology incubator and rapid prototyping center with a history of translational innovation in medical device innovation and artificial intelligence. My thesis work is on human-robot interaction in robotic surgery, specializing in how high autonomy surgical robots and surgeons can effectively collaborate on tasks to ensure safe integration into procedural workflows, expedite patient care, and enable generalization to new patient anatomies.
