Low-Cost Monitoring Technologies for Detecting Pregnancy Complications and Facilitating Timely Interventions in Low-Resource Settings

Research Figure

In this project, we focus on building AI models for real-time processing of fetal cardiac activity and detecting pregnancy complications. We are collaborating with Emory Co-Design Lab and a Guatemalan NGO, Wuqu' Kawoq, to support community healthcare workers and improve outcomes in pregnancy and early childhood.

Investigating the Impact of Social Determinants of Health and Trauma Exposure on Pregnancy Complications

Research Figure

By analyzing multi-modal data collected during pregnancy, including mental health, environment, and social determinants of health, we are building AI models to analyze fetal developmental trajectories and detect adverse events of pregnancy.

Developing mHealth Solutions for Monitoring of Blood Pressure and Mental Health to Avoid Preventable Delays in Healthcare During the Postpartum Period

Research Figure

This project focuses on developing mHealth solutions that monitor blood pressure and mental health during the postpartum period. By leveraging wearable technology and AI-driven models, the aim is to provide early detection of health issues and prevent delays in healthcare intervention. These efforts target improved outcomes for new mothers, particularly in low-resource settings.
