Joseph Goerres is a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Johns Hopkins. He works on the development of novel intraoperative approaches in order to facilitate image-guided orthopedic interventions and improve their accuracy. His research interests include image segmentation, shape modeling, object detection, and investigating the applicability of these methods for intraoperative C-arm imaging. His background covers 3D shape model segmentation and feature detection in the context of orthopedic treatments at the lower ankle joint.
