Welcome Karim!
07.04.2026Karim Elbarbary joined the Pattern Recognition Group at CAIDAS as a PhD student under the supervision of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Katharina Breininger in April 2026.
Karim holds a Master’s degree in Artificial Intelligence from FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg, with a specialization in biomedical engineering. During his master’s studies, he worked on vision-language models for mammography analysis, aiming to improve lesion detection in challenging clinical scenarios. His PhD research focuses on 2D-3D registration and motion compensation for X-ray–guided interventions, with the goal of enabling real-time, robust guidance during minimally invasive procedures. This research will be carried out in collaboration with Siemens Healthineers in Forchheim. Welcome to the team, Karim!
