Talk about your job and what you like best about it:   
I work as a volunteer in the department of radiology. I am working on developing a machine learning algorithm to segment human knee cartilage using multiple MRI sequence data. It is my first time to work in a health-related field, and I really enjoy it. I like my job because I can use my expertise in advanced computer programming to benefit the medical community.
