Jonas Teuwen

Yoni

Yoni has an interdisciplinary background with a formal education in neuroscience, biomedical science, economics, and artificial intelligence. With years of experience in operational and technical roles, he now wishes to bridge the gap between artificial intelligence, medical science, and clinical implementation of AI models.

He is a PhD candidate under the HISTO-AI project (2020-2024), with an aim to develop deep learning methods to predict genomic and transcriptomic information directly from H&E WSIs. The larger goal of this project is to predict which patient can benefit from immune therapy or targeted therapy.
