A working ledger of what I am building, writing, and wrestling with.

May 2026 Activity project, manuscript start

Started structuring the manuscript. The first pass is always the longest.

multilevel modeling

May 2026 ibd-digest, shipped

Automated literature workflow on GitHub Actions, semantic embeddings to surface newly published IBD imaging papers each day. Letting it run for a few days before deciding the next steps.

GitHub Actions

May 2026 ESGAR 2026

Closed out slides for two first-author orals at ESGAR 2026 in Montpellier and sent to co-authors.

May 2026 Motility manuscript, submission queued

The manuscript is ready to submit. We decided to circulate it for one final read by all authors after ESGAR 2026. The delay bothers me, but the paper will be better for it.

May 2026 Edge cases on a clinical extraction pipeline

Spent a few days handling legacy formatting in historical reports that breaks naive parsing. Most of the work in agentic systems lives here, not in the model calls.

April 2026 Motility manuscript, final pass

Last structural revisions and cross-site checks before submission. The hardest part has been trimming a well-written paragraph.

March 2026 Personal site, live

Quarto build, custom theme, treated as both a professional presence and a digital garden. The harder decision was structural, not technical: deciding what counts as ready to publish.
