Neil Noronha

Software, data engineering and artificial intelligence

I am a Master's student in Computer Engineering at NYU and Research Assistant at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, where I fine-tune medical vision-language models (MedGemma, MedSigLIP) on 50,000+ skin lesion images for smartphone-based mpox detection (92% accuracy), advised by Dr. Megan Coffee. At mLab, I work on data labeling infrastructure for healthcare ML using passive network traffic analysis to detect Alzheimer's disease, advised by Dr. Danny Huang.

I build products, ship fast, and iterate with users. Currently building Nidra, a training optimization tool aggregating Whoop, Apple Health, and network activity data. Obsessed with performance in software engineering.
