James Hui

I’m a Computer Science graduate from Durham University, currently pursuing an MSc in AI for Biomedicine and Healthcare at University College London.

My work sits at the intersection of machine learning and software engineering. I’ve built systems across both domains, from full-stack web apps in professional SCRUM environments to ML pipelines for medical data. I'm particularly interested in applying AI to real-world problems where reliability and usability is key, especially in healthcare.

Currently, I am developing a multimodal retrieval system for medical content in collaboration with Medicube, using embedding-based approaches (e.g. CLIP by OpenAI) to recommend relevant images, GIFs and videos from clinical text. The goal is to make complex medical information more accessible and understandable for patients.

Alongside this, my experience includes:

• Building and improving RESTful APIs and frontend systems using TypeScript and Next.js
• Developing end-to-end machine learning pipelines for medical images
• Working with data-driven systems across Python, Pytorch and modern web stacks

I am particularly passionate in roles where I can contribute to building practical systems that have a direct, positive impact on people's daily lives.
