Ananya Aggarwal, an Indian-origin master's student at the University of San Francisco (USF), is leading an innovative artificial intelligence project that aims to revolutionize medical diagnostics. Along with her teammates, Aggarwal is developing Cloud Pathology AI, a tool that quickly analyzes and summarizes blood test results, reducing the time patients wait for their reports.
“When a patient gets a medical test, a pathologist has to review the numbers and determine what they mean. This takes time, and patients have to wait,” explained Haebin Lee, Aggarwal’s teammate and a fellow MS student.
Their Cloud Pathology software manages laboratory data, including patient information and test results. “In seconds, our AI tool analyzes and summarizes a patient’s results, allowing doctors to verify the analysis before sharing it with patients,” Lee said. The system also offers easy-to-understand health tips, enabling patients to act on their results sooner.
Aggarwal's team is one of several at USF working on cutting-edge technology projects under the guidance of professors, alumni, and local tech professionals. These initiatives tackle real-world problems, ranging from environmental monitoring to cybersecurity.
“These projects are more than just academic exercises—they have real-world implications,” said Mario Lim, an adjunct professor and USF alumnus who co-founded Openprise, a software startup in San Mateo.
GeoAI: Automating environmental detection
Another student-led project, GeoAI, is focused on geospatial analysis. The team—comprising Hana Gamracy, Noga Gottlieb, Paramdeep Sodhi, and George Sphicas—was inspired by a question posed at USF’s GenAI summit: Could artificial intelligence be used to quickly analyze geospatial data?
SnapLogic agent framework: AI-powered assistants
A separate group of USF students—Yin Hu, Qianru Wei, and Heran Zhang—has been working under the supervision of Professor Greg Benson to enhance SnapLogic’s AI capabilities. Their project, SnapLogic Agent Framework, is an extension of the company’s GenAI App Builder, which allows users to interact with large language models like OpenAI’s GPT.
REST 8: Enhancing cybersecurity in software development
Cybersecurity is another focus for USF students. Yahvi Bhatnagar and her team—Andrew Diep, Colby Dobson, Shreyash Hamal, and Johanna Lazaro—are developing REST 8, a tool designed to secure access to shared computer servers.
