The entirety of my research is computational, with a little bit of imaging but mostly computational modeling. Any help would be appreciated.Ĭurrent cardiology fellow here. Dont have any programming experience or friends but I am trying. I dont want to choose between medicine and programming but have a more hybrid approach. Could there be a possible future where i could integrate this in my life and still pursue medicine. Looking for some advice if I should continue down this path. I want to integrate algorithms, machine learning and softwares like matlab with my future profession medicine. I wanted to ask this subreddit whether it was going to be a beneficial investment of time to learn image processing (which is what I think MATLAB does best) for someone who is hopefully going to be a physician. Problem: Now to me it looks like a very outdated software or atleast has the looks of it. I saw the Quantitative analysis for biological methods course on EdX and enrolled myself (link attached below).

I had missed that analytical thinking and I soon realized I wanted to get more involved with coding and started an introductory course on python (yt vids) as suggested by some forums. I found the CS50 course on EdX around couple months ago and I absolutely loved that.

I had to create this account because I have no one around me to turn to with coding experience.īackground: I am a medical student starting my final year soon.
