About the Talk Advancements in AI algorithms has resulted important applications in the area of healthcare. In this seminar, we will discuss three areas of applications in cellular image informatics, cardiac imaging and drug discovery. In cellular imaging, our focus is on cancer diagnostics and drug discovery using spatial omics and histology imaging data. In cardiac imaging, we focus on CT coronary angiography and the diagnosis of coronary artery diseases. We will also discuss some applications of AI in drug discovery and drug design.
The seminar/talks are co-organized by the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society Singapore Chapter. About the Speaker Lee Hwee Kuan’s current research work involves the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) research for clinical and biological applications. His laboratory focus on diverse research activities, including more basic AI centric research as well as AI applications. Theoretical AI development activities in Hwee Kuan’s laboratory is mostly inspired by impactful clinical use cases. Clinical application areas include, diagnostics in cancers, cardiology, dermatology and interventional radiology. In the area of biology, Hwee Kuan’s laboratory develops bioinformatics pipelines in spatial omics and single cell analysis, and in the development of AI in protein science and drug discovery. Hwee Kuan’s primary appointment is as the Deputy Director for Training and Talent development in the Bioinformatics Institute. He also holds multiple adjunct and joint appointments in the local universities and other research institutions. |
