About the speaker
Guido Gerig is Institute Professor and former Chair at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering in the Departments of Computer Science and Engineering and Biomedical Engineering, where he is also a member of the NYU VIDA center (visualization, imaging and data analysis). Guido Gerig was previously USTAR Professor of Computer Science at the University of Utah (2007-2015), Taylor Grandy Professor of Computer Science and Psychiatry at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (1998-2007), and Assistant Professor at ETH Zurich (1993-1998). Guido Gerig has been named IEEE Fellow (class of 2019) and is also a Fellow of the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE). His main research is in computer vision and medical image analysis with driving problems from medicine, tackled in close multidisciplinary collaboration between medicine, engineering, and statistics. His research supports a number of clinical imaging research studies with novel, innovative image analysis methodologies related to segmentation, registration, spatiotemporal modeling, shape analysis, and imaging statistics. Guido Gerig and is author/co-author on over 500 articles, most at high-impact events related to computer science and clinical research.
