Hi, I’m Martin.I build medical AI.

Agentic LLM systems, and computer vision for oncology, genomics, and healthcare, grounded in trust and transparency.

01 — My company

MediBit: the medical AI company I co-founded and co-lead.

Since July 2025 I’ve been Co-CEO of MediBit, a five-person team of engineers, a postdoctoral cancer researcher and an oncology resident. We build AI software for healthcare, from clinical-trial matching in oncology to computer vision for ENT telemedicine.

MB Trials

Matches structured and unstructured oncology patient profiles to clinical-trial eligibility criteria, so hospitals, CROs and sponsors can find eligible patients faster.

Throat scanning with Larinta

An AI throat-scanning application for ENT telemedicine, built with Larinta (formerly Shoelessly). Computer vision analyses throat images to support ENT digital diagnostics.

02 — Focus

Trustworthy AI for precision medicine: traceable, reviewable and useful at the point of care.

A / Genomics

Agentic LLMs for variant interpretation

Specialised agents, knowledge graphs and RAG that retrieve and synthesise evidence from literature, variant databases and guidelines, with every step reviewable by an expert.

MSc thesis · 2025 →
B / Medical imaging

Computer vision across medical imaging

My deepest experience is in digital pathology: segmentation and quantification in H&E and IHC images, often with weak labels. I’m interested in medical imaging across modalities and applications, which now includes throat images for ENT telemedicine at MediBit.

C / Clinical workflow

AI products clinicians can audit

Trial matching and patient-handover tools built for clinical governance: verbatim source quotes, deterministic checks, human confirmation, audit trails.

03 — The thread

Cancer research came first. The AI came later.

Long before I wrote code for hospitals, my first research project was on why some testicular cancers resist chemotherapy. Every step since has come back to oncology from a different angle.
