Kourosh Vali is a dedicated Ph.D. Candidate in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of California, Davis, where he is making significant strides in the field of medical technology. Currently serving as a Graduate Teaching Assistant, Kourosh is not only honing his own expertise but also nurturing the next generation of engineers through mentorship and instruction. His primary research focus lies in the development of innovative solutions for fetal health monitoring, specifically through the Trans-abdominal Fetal Pulse Oximeter (TFO) project under the guidance of Professor Ghiasi at the Laboratory of Embedded and Programmable Systems.
In this groundbreaking project, Kourosh is at the forefront of creating embedded software and system solutions aimed at non-invasively estimating fetal blood oxygen saturation during pregnancy. This involves the intricate processing of optical signals obtained from the maternal body, where Kourosh employs advanced signal processing techniques and machine learning algorithms to extract critical fetal health information. His proficiency in C++, Embedded C, and Python frameworks like PyTorch, combined with his skills in image processing using OpenCV, enables him to develop robust algorithms that enhance the accuracy and reliability of fetal monitoring systems.
Kourosh's work not only showcases his technical acumen in mathematics, simulations, and signal processing but also reflects his commitment to improving maternal and fetal health outcomes through technology. As he continues to push the boundaries of embedded systems and medical applications, Kourosh Vali is poised to make a lasting impact in the field of biomedical engineering, bridging the gap between technology and healthcare.
