Bio
Dr. Kuceyeski was awarded her PhD in Applied Mathematics in 2009 from Case Western Reserve University, after which she moved to Weill Cornell Medicine to complete her postdoctoral training in quantitative neuroimaging. Her postdoctoral training focused on development of tools to analyze MRI-based neuroimaging data and brain-behavior mapping. She has been at Weill Cornell for 14 years, where her group focuses on using quantitative approaches, including machine learning, to understand how the human brain works. Amy is also the founder and co-director of the cross-campus working group Machine Learning in Medicine, which aims to bring together ML researchers in Cornell-Ithaca/Cornell-Tech and clinicians and researchers at WCM to address medicine's toughest problems.
Distinctions:
- Distinguished Investigator Award, The Academy for Radiological and Biomedical Imaging Research (2022).
- Founded the Machine Learning in Medicine inter-campus working group, (2016).
