Valentina Salvatelli is a Principal AI Researcher at Microsoft Research in Cambridge, UK. Valentina, you were just promoted to Principal AI Researcher? Yes, I was recently promoted. Congratulations! Tell me about your work. What does a Principal AI Researcher do at Microsoft? I've been doing this kind of work since I joined, more than four years ago: I lead a team of researchers and engineers. Our group is particularly interested in AI for health care, particularly from a computer vision multimodal perspective. I started working on computational pathology, how to learn image representation for that, and used it for detecting pattern related to certain genomic conditions. And then more recently, we focus on vision language models and, for example, how to use them to automatize radiology reporting or to learn representations, also in this case, at scale from radiology images. 18 DAILY ICCV Tuesday Women in Computer Vision Read 160 FASCINATING interviews with Women in Science Read 160 FASCINATING interviews with Women in Science “Don’t scared of the fact that maybe you're the only one in the room or a minority.
