Dr. Gilmer Valdes received his PhD in medical physics from the University of California, Los Angeles, in 2013. He was a postdoctoral fellow with the University of California, San Francisco between 2013–2014 and a medical physics resident from 2014 to 2016 with the University of Pennsylvania. He is currently an associate professor with dual appointments in the Department of Radiation Oncology and the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the University of California, San Francisco. His main research focus is in the development of algorithms to satisfy special needs that machine learning applications have in medicine.
Dr. Lei Xing is the Jacob Haimson & Sarah S. Donaldson Professor and Director of Medical Physics Division of Radiation Oncology Department at Stanford University School of Medicine. He also holds affiliate faculty positions in the Department of Electrical Engineering, Biomedical Informatics, Bio-X and Molecular Imaging Program at Stanford (MIPS). Dr. Xing obtained his PhD in Physics from the Johns Hopkins University and received his medical physics training at the University of Chicago. His research has been focused on artificial intelligence in medicine, medical imaging, treatment planning and dose optimization, medical imaging, imaging instrumentations, image guided interventions, nanomedicine, and applications of molecular imaging in radiation oncology. He has made unique and significant contributions to each of the above areas. Dr. Xing is an author on more than 400 peer reviewed publications, an inventor/co-inventor on many issued and pending patents, and a co- investigator or principal investigator on numerous NIH, DOD, NSF, RSNA, AAPM, Komen, ACS and corporate grants. He is a fellow of AAPM (American Association of Physicists in Medicine) and AIMBE (American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering).
