Balint Kovacs is a PhD student at the Division of Medical Image Computing at the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) and Medical Faculty Heidelberg working on multi-parametric prostate MRI analysis. He received a double BSc degree in electronics and electrical engineering with embedded information and control systems specialization at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics and Kyungpook National University with the KEUDOS double-degree scholarship. He wrote his Bachelor's thesis on the development of optical biosensors. He was awarded a DAAD scholarship and continued his studies at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and received his MSc degree in electrical engineering and information technology with biomedical engineering specialization. He developed in his Master's thesis a brain-computer-interface for the investigation of the human heuro-visual system using a deep learning approach. Currently, he is interested in multi-modal image analysis, particularly for prostate cancer and he does his PhD in co-supervision in collaboration with the Division of Radiology (DKFZ).
