Tareq is a PhD candidate at Erasmus MC’s Department of Radiology & Nuclear Medicine, where he specializes in 3D Imaging and Craniofacial Shape Analysis. Collaborating with the Department of Neurosurgery, he studies congenital craniofacial dysmorphologies in children using various shape analysis methods. He also explores the potential of 3D photogrammetry to non-invasively quantify surgical outcomes. Beyond this, Tareq is actively developing open-source software tools and mathematical models for research and clinical purposes.
