Research and projects

Accepted at three venues:

Designed and assessed compliance scenarios, such as data protection, discrimination and scientific integrity, against rubrics grounded in the relevant legislation.
Investigated what happens to compliance when the agent's system prompt includes the relevant legislative excerpts and an explicit instruction to comply.

Identified regulatory gaps including algorithmic bias, data shifts, AI misuse in clinical workflows, and weak transparency and explainability in medical AI tools.
