Bamidele Ajisogun, PhD

I'm a dynamic and passionate researcher dedicated to exploring cutting-edge technologies and their applications in imaging, algorithm designs, and product management. Here's a glimpse into who I am and what drives my work:

 

Academic Journey

I embarked on my academic journey with a bachelor’s degree in applied Geophysics from The Federal University of Technology Akure, Nigeria, setting the foundation for my analytical thinking and problem-solving skills. My thirst for knowledge led me to pursue a master’s degree in Geophysics at the University of Lagos, where I conducted groundbreaking research in the oil and gas industry, applying advanced computer algorithms to predict oil and gas structures.

 

To further expand my horizons, I pursued an MBA with a focus on Management Information Systems at Point Park University, Pittsburgh. This experience allowed me to delve into the world of data analysis, machine learning, and information systems, setting the stage for my transition into the realm of intelligent systems.

 

I'm currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Computer Science with a specialization in the Intelligent Systems program at the University of Pittsburgh, where I now conduct innovative research at the intersection of imaging, artificial intelligence, and product management.

 

Professional Journey

Throughout my career, I've held various roles, from Geophysicist in the oil and gas industry to Senior Project Analyst and Manager, Product Development for innovation,  analytics, strategy, business intelligence, and commercialization, at UPMC. My professional experiences have honed my data analysis, product management, and strategic thinking skills, preparing me for the challenges of academic research and industry innovation.

 

Research Passion

My true passion lies in research and innovation. I am currently engaged in groundbreaking research that leverages imaging, computer vision, machine learning, and data fusion techniques to advance our understanding in various areas of neurodegenerative diseases, health risks, product management, and strategic management. This research has the potential to transform products in business,  early detection of diseases in health care, personalized medicine in research, and strategy management in business development.

 

Collaborative Spirit

I firmly believe in the power of collaboration. My research thrives on interdisciplinary cooperation, and I am always eager to work with like-minded individuals and institutions to push the boundaries of knowledge and create tangible solutions for real-world problems.

 

Vision

My vision is to make a meaningful impact in technology by developing and applying intelligent systems. I am committed to producing world-class research, mentoring future generations of researchers, and actively contributing to the advancement of science and technology.

 

Thank you for visiting my website, and I invite you to explore my work, connect with me for collaborative discussions, and join me on this exciting journey of exploration, innovation, and discovery. Together, we can make a difference.
