Nice to e-meet you. I'm Shri đź‘‹
2nd Year PhD Student in Biomedical Engineering
Carleton University • HealthVisFutures Lab
I research at the intersection of data visualization, human-computer interaction, and generative AI to develop tools that transform healthcare decision-making. Working under the supervision of Dr. Fateme Rajabiyazdi at Carleton University.
My current work focuses on designing interactive visualization systems for monitoring cardiac rehabilitation patient outcomes, helping healthcare providers identify care gaps and optimize treatment pathways. I'm also investigating the metacognitive demands posed by generative AI on users seeking health information—exploring how it shapes trust, comprehension, and decision-making as AI tools grow.
Before starting my PhD, I completed a Master of Applied Science in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Ottawa (2021–2023), where I worked under the supervision of Dr. Natalie Baddour and Dr. Edward Lemaire. Prior to that, I earned my Bachelor of Engineering in Biomedical Engineering from Anna University (2017–2021).
