MICCAI 2022 Daily – Monday

I was very lucky during my postdoc and PhD because I worked directly with doctors. We were trying to make something that would work in clinic, that people could use, and that may in the future help patients. That’s what attracts me, especially thinking maybe one day I can make a contribution to clinics. You’re just starting out, but do you think that during your career, you’ll be able to help people in clinical settings or create technology that will help people feel better? I guess it’s difficult to say, but I hope that one day I will develop some technology that could help – maybe not directly to save someone, but help the doctors make better predictions or better decisions that will benefit patients in the future. Let’s dream: What would 100% success be for you in your career? [ Esther thinks ] Nobel Prize in Medicine? [ she laughs ] Exactly, that would be a really good dream! I think I’m a little bit less ambitious. I would be very happy to see a tool used in hospitals in different countries – not only in the UK where I’m based but also internationally. You’re not really English, are you? No. Where are you from? Spain. Where in Spain? 23 DAILY MICCAI Monday Esther Puyol
