Research
We develop multimodal fusion algorithms that combine information from multiple imaging modalities, patient histories, and multi-omics data. By integrating these diverse data sources, we aim to enable more precise diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic decisions.
We investigate the potential of generative models, such as diffusion models and Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), in the medical domain. We leverage these techniques to synthesize realistic medical images for data sharing or augmentation of training data. By pushing the boundaries of generative modeling, we seek to enhance the capabilities of AI systems in healthcare.
We explore the capabilities of large language models in processing and analyzing medical data. By fine-tuning these models on domain-specific medical texts and electronic health records, we aim to extract valuable insights, generate clinical summaries, and support decision-making processes. Our research investigates the potential of language models in tasks such as medical question answering, clinical note summarization, and patient risk stratification.
One of our primary areas of expertise is precision oncology of solid tumors, including immunotherapy. We develop deep learning methods for automated tumor segmentation, characterization, and treatment response assessment from medical images. Our research aims to reduce inter-observer variability in cancer diagnosis and provide objective tools to assist pathologists and radiologists. We also work on identifying clinically relevant morphologic phenotypes and biomarkers associated with response to specific therapeutic agents.
Our lab also focuses on applying AI techniques to musculoskeletal imaging. We develop methods for automated segmentation and analysis of musculoskeletal structures, such as bones, cartilage, and tendons, from MRI data. Our research aims to improve the accuracy and efficiency of musculoskeletal disease diagnosis, monitor disease progression, and assess treatment outcomes. We collaborate closely with clinical experts to develop AI-aided diagnostic tools that can be integrated into clinical workflows.

Interested in joining the team?
We regularly invite applications for Master’s Theses (“Abschlussarbeiten”) and Doctoral Theses as well as PhD projects (“Dr.-Arbeiten” - Dr. med., Dr. rer. medic., Dr.-Ing., Dr. rer. nat.) that are related to the main research areas of our group. Projects for theses and dissertations come from the broad interface of medicine, the imaging sciences, and the engineering and natural sciences, including physics, electrical and mechanical engineering, as well as the computer sciences, and may be pursued in our department and in close cooperation with respective institutes from RWTH Aachen University.
If you want to be a part of the team, we have put together further information and possible projects for master’s theses. For further information on doctoral dissertations / PhD projects please get in touch with us directly at AImedicineukaachende.
