Kavya Kopparapu: Eyeagnosis and GlioVision
Eyeagnosis and GlioVision — AI screening tools.
Her grandfather's diabetic retinopathy in India prompted Eyeagnosis: a 3D-printed lens clips onto a phone and a neural network reads the retinal photo for signs of disease, for clinics without an ophthalmologist. GlioVision followed, reading a scanned brain-tumour slide to predict molecular subtype in seconds. She was a Regeneron Science Talent Search finalist in 2018 and founded the Girls Computing League.
IP note
One profile claims a GlioVision patent; none found on registers.
Recognition
Regeneron STS 2018 finalist; Davidson Fellow.
