Shekoofeh Azizi
My research is focused on developing approaches that facilitate the translation of AI solutions into tangible clinical impact. I am particularly interested in designing foundation models for biomedical applications and have been leading a couple of major efforts in this area. I am one of the research leads driving the ambitious effort behind the creation of REMEDIES, Med-PaLM, Med-PaLM 2, Med-PaLM M, and Med-Gemini which are Google's flagship models, meticulously designed for medical applications.
