María Lucía Arango Cortés

I am a PhD candidate in biosciences at Universidad de La Sabana in Colombia. I am advised by Luis Fernando Giraldo in the adult medicine group and Oscar Julián Perdomo in the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences at Universidad del Rosario. I also develop my research in the Research Direction of Fundación Clínica Shaio in Colombia, where I support other projects related to the application of AI algorithms for cardiovascular data analysis and data processing from hardware devices.

My primary interests includes the application of artificial intelligence in hardware devices for the analysis of physiological variables of the cardiorespiratory system. In particular, I explore alternatives to implement intelligent algorithms to feedback medical devices that align with the concept of personalized medicine. My goal is to develop a diaphragm electrical stimulation system driven by chemical variables of respiration that uses AI to modulate electrical pulses and provide the patient with more physiological ventilatory support, compared to currently available alternatives on the market.
