Head of the Research Group MIAAI (Medical Image Analysis & Artificial Intelligence)
After completing her degree in Medicine, Prof. Dr. Woitek carried out speciality training in Radiology at the Medical University of Vienna from 2008 – 2014. She subsequently went on to write her PhD entitled “Fetal MRI in the (micro-) structural and functional assessment of the posterior fossa”. Between 2014 and 2017 she was Postdoctoral Fellow and Consultant Radiologist at the Department of Biomedical Imaging and Image-guided Therapy, Medical University of Vienna.
She was awarded the Erwin Schrödinger Research Fellowship at the University of Cambridge in 2017 after which she was appointed Senior Research Associate and Honorary Consultant Radiologist at the Department of Radiology, University of Cambridge.
Since 2022 she is Professor of Radiology and Head of the Research Group Medical Image Analysis and AI (MIAAI) at the Danube Private University (DPU) in Krems, Austria.
