Vasiliki (Vicky) Bikia
Postdoctoral Scholar, Biomedical Informatics
BioDr. Vasiliki Bikia is a Fellow at the Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence and Postdoctoral Scholar at Stanford University, working with Prof. Roxana Daneshjou. She received her Advanced Diploma degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH), Greece, in 2017, and her Ph.D. degree in Biomedical Engineering from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland, in 2021. Her Ph.D. research addressed the clinical need for providing non-invasive tools for cardiovascular monitoring leveraging machine learning and physics-based numerical modeling. In particular, she developed and tested novel healthcare algorithms for major biomarkers including central blood pressure, stroke volume, left ventricular elastance and arterial stiffness.
Her current work focuses on developing large multimodal models to enhance biomarker identification and predict patient outcomes. She leverages representation learning for both textual and visual medical data, creating models that are applied to downstream tasks, yielding more nuanced and precise clinical predictions. At Stanford, she has also contributed to the Stanford Spezi framework, designing and prototyping the Spezi Data Pipeline tool for enhanced digital health data accessibility and analysis workflows.
Her research interests include health algorithms, clinical and digital biomarkers, machine learning, non-invasive monitoring, and the application of large language models for personalized healthcare, predictive analytics, and enhancing patient-clinician interactions.
