Work Experience

Monash University Australia · AIM for Health Lab

Dec 2025 – Present
AI Research Assistant

Building medical AI in the AIM for Health Lab (AIM-LAB), Monash University Australia:

  • DermArena — a unified, multimodal, pan-speciality dermatology benchmark for evaluating medical multimodal LLMs across diagnosis, diagnostic test ordering, dermatopathology, treatment planning, and genomic variant-origin tasks, with rigorous data-leakage control.
  • Dermatology Multimodal LLM — instruction-tuning and benchmark experiments for a dermatology MLLM built on the PanDerm and DermFM-Zero vision foundation models, running fine-tuning ablations across different LLM decoders and high-resolution image encoders, with a curated instruction-tuning dataset.
  • IMAGE Trial DermAI — a role-based clinical web application where clinicians review skin-lesion cases alongside AI predictions, engineered to Monash Very Sensitive (VS) data controls with single sign-on and end-to-end access control.
