Hello! I’m Elias, a graduate student at Mississippi State University specializing in Large Language Models (LLMs) for healthcare. My research focuses on LLM reasoning and clinical uncertainty to improve trust and reliability in AI-driven medical systems. I’ve developed BarkPlug, a chatbot for student support, and contributed to an NIH-funded project on age-related memory using machine learning.
Previously, I spent nearly three years in the software industry building healthcare AI tools, speech systems for low-resource languages, and cross-platform applications. I began my journey in Bangladesh and was a NASA Space Apps Challenge divisional winner in 2017. I’m passionate about using AI to solve real-world problems that matter.
