About Michele
I’m a cardiac surgeon with over 25 years of clinical experience, passionate about bridging the gap between traditional medicine and modern data science.
Based in Ancona, Italy, I spend my days performing cardiac surgeries and my nights exploring the intersection of healthcare, machine learning, and statistical analysis.
I’ve been developing IT systems for hospitals since the 1990s and continue to advance cardiovascular care through data-driven approaches.
This site is my knowledge repository where I share tutorials, insights, and practical guides to help medical professionals harness the power of data science and AI in their practice.
“Mais il est aussi de ceux qu’on peut comparer aux arbres parce que leur croissance obéit, non pas comme celle des constructions humaines, à une loi de l’addition de chaque jour et de chaque instant, mais à une force intérieure qui dépose, d’après un plan caché, au-dedans des anciens dépôts, des couches nouvelles.”
