Biography
Leila has previously studied psychology, criminology and neuroscience and gained a PhD working on optimising remote diagnosis using telemedicine, and image analysis programming to facilitate telesurgery.
Leila moved from human neuroscience to artificial neural networks - she has studied intelligent computing systems and is interested in applying intelligent analysis methodologies and data mining to various data sources, particularly in medical informatics and e-health settings. She has taught introductory image processing and machine learning methods at MSc level.
She worked for several years as an analyst and medical writer/editor, covering diverse topics for medical education and pharmaceutical industry projects. More recently, she reviewed image-based computer-aided diagnosis systems for the diagnosis of cancer and concluded that they can be beneficial in the right applications.
Out of the office...
Leila writes fiction, usually something dark and scary. Her writing website is Making Stuff Up.
Research Interests
Telemedicine, Intelligent Systems, Data Mining, Health Informatics
Current Research
Leila is currently working on the EU-funded Implementing Transnational Telemedicine Solutions Project, evaluating the implementation and impact of 10 different telemedicine applications across 6 different Northern Periphery countries.
