Research
Dr. Corredor’s doctoral work focused on developing an end-to-end pipeline for pathology, including strategies and user interfaces for providing pathologists efficient access to visual content and extracting diagnostic and prognostic information from histopathology images of different kinds of cancer, e.g., ductal carcinoma in situ, ER+ breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, basal cell carcinoma, gastric adenocarcinoma, among others.
Dr. Corredor aims to develop novel imaging biomarkers for predicting diagnosis and prognosis of cancer. He has been actively working on developing novel digital pathology approaches for automatically identifying cancer-relevant diagnostic regions as well as which patients are likely to have disease recurrence and which might benefit from checkpoint inhibitors.
