Since then, I have been working as a postdoc at the \u201cAI and Multi-Omics Data\u201d Chair, which is part of the Institute for Medical Bioinformatics at the University Medical Center G\u00f6ttingen. My research continues to focus on the development of trustworthy machine learning models for medical applications. In order for us to trust the predictions of artificial intelligence in research, drug development, and patient treatment, criteria such as reliability, interpretability, and robustness play a central role alongside predictive accuracy. Unfortunately, these factors are often neglected or pitted against one another during model development. Therefore, I am developing new methods that treat \u201ctrustworthiness\u201d as a multifaceted concept and fulfill as many of the above-mentioned criteria as possible. In addition to oncological questions, I also focus on predicting antibiotic resistance based on routine clinical data from bacterial and fungal infections.<\/p>\n                  <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div data-colibri-id=\"15996-c17\" class=\"h-row-container gutters-row-lg-2 gutters-row-md-2 gutters-row-0 gutters-row-v-lg-2 gutters-row-v-md-2 gutters-row-v-2 style-8706 style-local-15996-c17 position-relative\">\n        <!---->\n        <div class=\"h-row justify-content-lg-center justify-content-md-center justify-content-center align-items-lg-stretch align-items-md-stretch align-items-stretch gutters-col-lg-2 gutters-col-md-2 gutters-col-0 gutters-col-v-lg-2 gutters-col-v-md-2 gutters-col-v-2\">\n          <!---->\n          <div class=\"h-column h-column-container d-flex h-col-lg-auto h-col-md-auto h-col-auto style-8707-outer style-local-15996-c18-outer\">\n            <div data-colibri-id=\"15996-c18\" class=\"d-flex h-flex-basis h-column__inner h-px-lg-2 h-px-md-2 h-px-2 v-inner-lg-2 v-inner-md-2 v-inner-2 style-8707 style-local-15996-c18 position-relative\">\n              <!---->\n              <!---->\n              <div class=\"w-100 h-y-container h-column__content h-column__v-align flex-basis-100 align-self-lg-start align-self-md-start align-self-start\">\n                <!---->\n                <div data-colibri-id=\"15996-c19\" class=\"style-8708 style-local-15996-c19 position-relative h-element\">\n                  <!---->\n                <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div data-colibri-id=\"15996-c20\" class=\"h-row-container gutters-row-lg-0 gutters-row-md-0 gutters-row-0 gutters-row-v-lg-0 gutters-row-v-md-0 gutters-row-v-0 style-8709 style-local-15996-c20 position-relative\">\n        <!---->\n        <div class=\"h-row justify-content-lg-center justify-content-md-center justify-content-center align-items-lg-stretch align-items-md-stretch align-items-stretch gutters-col-lg-0 gutters-col-md-0 gutters-col-0 gutters-col-v-lg-0 gutters-col-v-md-0 gutters-col-v-0\">\n          <!---->\n          <div class=\"h-column h-column-container d-flex h-col-lg-auto h-col-md-auto h-col-auto style-8710-outer style-local-15996-c21-outer\">\n            <div data-colibri-id=\"15996-c21\" class=\"d-flex h-flex-basis h-column__inner h-px-lg-2 h-px-md-2 h-px-2 v-inner-lg-2 v-inner-md-2 v-inner-2 style-8710 style-local-15996-c21 position-relative\">\n              <!---->\n              <!---->\n              <div class=\"w-100 h-y-container h-column__content h-column__v-align flex-basis-100 align-self-lg-center align-self-md-center align-self-center\">\n                <!---->\n                <div data-colibri-id=\"15996-c22\" class=\"h-global-transition-all h-heading style-8711 style-local-15996-c22 position-relative h-element\">\n                  <!---->\n                  <div class=\"h-heading__outer style-8711 style-local-15996-c22\">\n                    <!---->\n                    <!---->\n                    <h4 class=\"\">1.\n                      <br>\n                    <\/h4>\n                  <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n          <div class=\"h-column h-column-container d-flex h-col-lg-auto h-col-md-auto h-col-auto style-8712-outer style-local-15996-c23-outer\">\n            <div data-colibri-id=\"15996-c23\" class=\"d-flex h-flex-basis h-column__inner h-px-lg-0 h-px-md-0 h-px-0 v-inner-lg-0 v-inner-md-0 v-inner-0 style-8712 style-local-15996-c23 position-relative\">\n              <!---->\n              <!---->\n              <div class=\"w-100 h-y-container h-column__content h-column__v-align flex-basis-100 align-self-lg-center align-self-md-center align-self-center\">\n                <!---->\n                <div data-colibri-id=\"15996-c24\" class=\"h-global-transition-all h-heading style-8713 style-local-15996-c24 position-relative h-element\">\n                  <!---->\n                  <div class=\"h-heading__outer style-8713 style-local-15996-c24\">\n                    <!---->\n                    <!---->\n                    <h4 class=\"\">They are researching how AI can predict a patient's response to cancer drugs.

to predefined rules and often draw on biological background knowledge to solve problems. In contrast, machine learning can automatically learn relationships from a set of example data points\u2014in principle, without any prior knowledge.\nIn the case of complex diseases such as cancer, many mechanisms\u2014for example, those related to disease onset or drug efficacy\u2014are not yet understood, as they are often dictated by a complex interplay of cellular processes. By combining conventional bioinformatics and artificial intelligence, we can ensure that models respect known biological realities, which often also improves model interpretability. At the same time, the model can discover new relationships that are not covered by the current state of knowledge.<\/p>\n                  <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3 Fragen an&#8230; Dr. Lea Eckhart Gruppenmitglied Ich habe 2025 an der Universit\u00e4t des Saarlandes zum Thema vertrauensw\u00fcrdiger Machine Learning Verfahren f\u00fcr die personalisierte Krebsbehandlung promoviert.
