Univ.-Prof. Dr. med. Dipl.-Phys.
Daniel Truhn
Daniel is a physicist, imaging scientist, and clinical radiologist with a dedicated focus on machine learning and magnetic resonance imaging. After studying physics at RWTH Aachen University and Imperial College in London, he continued to satisfy his thirst for knowledge by studying medicine at RWTH Aachen University. In 2013, he completed his MD thesis on the compatibility of positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging and joined the Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology (University Hospital Aachen) to become a board-certified clinical radiologist in 2019. Besides his clinical work, he pursued his research interests in machine learning as a fellow at the Institute of Imaging and Computer Vision (RWTH Aachen University) for two years before returning to the clinic where he currently leads the interdisciplinary research group “AI in Medical Imaging”. His research focuses on bringing machine learning-methods into clinical practice and on bridging the gaps between research possibilities and clinical applicability.
