Laurens Schinkelshoek
Laurens Schinkelshoek completed his bachelor in Physics and afterwards started working in IT. While working for the IT department in a hospital he got familiar with IT systems and data structures in healthcare. When he learned about machine learning he saw the huge potential this technology could offer to decrease the workload of healthcare practitioners and improve patient experience. At the same time the hurdles to get this new technology ready for use were huge. Now he works as a Data Scientist for Healthplus.ai on besting these hurdles and making machine learning based products available in the clinic.
