Before taking up her new position, Lisa Koch worked on machine learning for biomedical data analysis. She has a background in academic research as well as developing data science products for medical devices, with a strong focus on technology that can ultimately benefit people\u2019s health in a safe and trustworthy way.<\/p>\n

After an undergraduate degree in electrical (BSc) and biomedical engineering (MSc) at ETH Z\u00fcrich, Switzerland, Lisa Koch did a PhD in machine learning for medical image analysis at Imperial College London, UK. \u00a0<\/span>After a post-doc at ETH Z\u00fcrich, she joined the Swiss wearable medical device startup Ava, where she eventually became the data science team lead. In this position, she came to appreciate the need for demonstrably safe machine learning in healthcare. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Derek Brandt, CEO of the DCB adds: “In addition to Lilian Witthauer, professor in the field of sensor technology, and Jos\u00e9 Garcia Tirado, professor for technology-assisted precision medicine, we have taken a third and important step with Professor Koch for the topic of artificial intelligence (AI) and data science in diabetes care. This enables us to further strengthen our international pioneering role in the field of translational diabetes technology research. We will continue doing everything we can to improve daily life for people with diabetes”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
