Anne Hege Aamodt, Member Board of Directors at European Stroke Organisation, shared on LinkedIn:
”Warm congratulations to Gisle Berg Helland on the successful defence of your PhD thesis, ‘Long-Term Ischemic Stroke Outcome Prediction Using MRI and Machine Learning.’
This is an impressive and highly relevant body of work at the intersection of stroke medicine, advanced MRI, and machine learning.
Outstanding contributions by the opponents Johanna Ospel and Teresa Ullberg, and by Geir Ringstad as Chair of the adjudication committee.
Many thanks to the committee for a thorough evaluation and a stimulating scientific discussion.
Special thanks to Ole Morten Rønning for excellent leadership of the defence, and extra congratulations to Einar August Høgestøl, the principal supervisor, for outstanding mentorship throughout the project.
It has been a true pleasure to contribute as co-supervisor together with Hanne Flinstad Harbo and Guri Hagberg and to collaborate closely with such a dedicated, insightful, and collegial candidate.
Congratulations again on this well-deserved milestone, Gisle — wishing you every success in your continued career!”
