Pathology Report Summarizer Assessment

We are building an automatic pathology report summarization system. We would like to include human judgement from professionals to help us understand and explain the results, and improve the system. In the evaluation, we will schedule a 30-min meeting do go through the details and for the professional to sign a consent form. The professional will expect to receive twenty documents including ten raw reports and ten summaries of these reports. They will be sent in a random order with no correspondence indicated. For each of the document, you will be asked to answer ten questions. We will evaluate the quality of the summaries based on the time she/he spent on reading the report, answering the questions, and the accuracy of the questions.

Preventative Eye Care Method Exploration

A large problem in India is the unavailability of basic eye care, especially with60-70 million people suffering from visual impairment and the majority living in rural communities. The majority of these eye problems can be avoided through safer precautions, or easily treated if caught early. I will explore the impact of preventative eye care methods in villagers' inaccessibility to eye care and eye services. I will work with patients and doctors at Kalinga Hospital to identify common misconceptions in eye care, and create posters and/or hold demonstrations teaching preventative methods, analogous to breast self-exams. I am learning even more from the environment around me - the nuances that separate Odisha's methods from Western medicine is something that I can only learn by fully immersing myself in this experience.
