Summary
Guilherme Brito is a medical doctor and neuroscience PhD student at PUCRS with eight years of experience bridging acute clinical care and computational research. He has four years of hands-on emergency department practice leading teams in time-critical situations, coupled with expertise in study design, biostatistics, neuroimaging (fMRI and 18F-FDG PET-CT) and graph-theory–based analyses. Proficient in R and Python and comfortable with Git, Docker, Bash and LaTeX, he applies machine learning (SVM, k-means) to clinical neuroimaging questions and shares code and publications publicly. A Queen Mary (London) alum, he also brings entrepreneurial experience from hackathons and a health-data startup cofounding effort, and combines fluent English and Portuguese with conversational Spanish. Notably, he blends frontline medical decision-making with reproducible computational workflows, making him effective at translating complex clinical problems into data-driven research.
