Deep learning algorithms to isolate and quantify the structures of the anterior segment in optical coherence tomography images

Michael Girard is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Bioengineering at the National University of Singapore (see lab website Here). Dr Girard received his engineering diploma (equivalent to a MSc) in Mechanical Engineering from the Ecole Polytechnique Universitaire de Lyon, France in 2003. He was awarded his PhD from the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Tulane University, New Orleans, USA, in January of 2009. Subsequently, Dr Girard pursued his postdoctoral work in the Department of Bioengineering at Imperial College London, UK. In September of 2010, Dr Girard was awarded a highly competitive and prestigious Imperial College Junior Research Fellowship to pursue his research. Throughout his training, Dr Girard has gained expertise in experimental, theoretical, and computational soft tissue biomechanics, which he has utilised to pose and answer questions of high clinical relevance in the field of ophthalmology. Dr Girard's current research program aims to develop state-of-the-art engineering tools for the diagnosis and treatment of biomechanically-related pathologies.
