  • Associate Professor of Orthopaedics & Rehabilitation; Co-Director of Yale's Avascular Necrosis & Osteonecrosis Program, Joint Reconstruction; Associate Vice Chair of Research, Basic Science; Director of Technology and Innovation, General Orthopaedics

    Dr. Daniel Wiznia is an Associate Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery and an Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering & Materials Science who specializes in reconstructive surgery of the hip and knee. He has expertise in total hip replacements and total knee replacement surgeries. He also specializes in revision hip and revision knee replacements. One of his major clinical focuses is avascular necrosis & osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Dr. Wiznia is the Department of Orthopaedic's Director of Technology and Innovation. In this role, he leads and coordinates efforts in the use and development of technology and innovation in education, research and clinical care. Examples include robotics and navigation, the use of 3D modeling, virtual reality and artificial intelligence, as well as patient care platforms to coordinate efforts across the department in the use of surgical advances in...
  • Postgraduate Fellow

    Noemi is a postgraduate research fellow working in the 3D tumor lab. Her main work in the lab is on the multiple Vestibular Schwannoma projects being conducted by the lab. Noemi worked on the development of the AI algorithm for the volumetric analysis of VS tumors and continues to use this tool in projects looking at the growth and effect of these tumors.
  • Postgraduate Fellow

    Manwi is a postgraduate research fellow in the 3D tumor lab, where she primarily works on various projects related to multiple Vestibular Schwannomas (VS). She focuses on studying the growth and impact of these tumors and validating the accuracy of the AI on new datasets. She trains new users on AI and manual segmentation.
  • Postgraduate Associate

    Shelby is a postgraduate research associate working in the 3D tumor lab. Her primary focus in the lab is on the development of an AI algorithm for the automated segmentation and analysis of meningiomas. Specifically, Shelby will focus on manual meningioma segmentation in order to build the ground truth dataset for this AI algorithm.
  • Postgraduate Associate

    Rithvik is a postgraduate research associate working in the 3D tumor lab. He focuses on generating the ground truth data set for pituitary adenomas to generate an AI algorithm for their automated segmentation and analysis. Rithvik also compiles protocols and assists in documentation for IRB approval and FDA compliance.
  • Sahil is a senior in high school working in the 3D tumor lab. His current primary focus in the lab is assisting with the development of the Vestibular Schwannoma AI model. Sahil will soon begin working on tumor modeling of Plexiform Neurofibromas.
