Bhakti V. Baheti, PhD

Bio

Bhakti Baheti, Ph.D., is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine (P&LM) of the Indiana University School of Medicine.  She was a postdoctoral researcher at University of Pennsylvania before joining IU. Her research has focused on developing advanced artificial intelligence algorithms to address complex problems in computer vision as well as medical imaging. Since last few years, she has been investigating the computational analysis of digitized tissue sections to understand the underlying tumor microenvironment and predict prognosis of patients with brain glioblastoma. She is also working on exploring the association of imaging features extracted from digitized tissue sections with their molecular characteristics. Dr. Baheti was the lead organizer of first ever brain tumor sequence registration (BraTS-Reg) challenge that focused establishing benchmark environment for deformable image registration algorithms. She has also worked on the implementation and validation of convolutional filters for quantitative image feature extraction, as part of the international collaborative effort of the Image Biomarker Standardization Initiative (IBSI) to ensure reproducibility in feature extractors.
