Research overview: Zongwei Zhou received a B.Sc. degree with honors in Computer Science from Dalian University of Technology in 2016. He is currently a Ph.D. student in the Department of Biomedical Informatics, Arizona State University reporting to Dr. Jianming Liang. He has also spent time at Mayo Clinic, University of California, Berkeley, and Université de Montréal. Drawing upon biomedical informatics, computer vision, and deep learning, his research focuses on developing novel methodologies to minimize the annotation efforts for computer-aided diagnosis, therapy, and surgery. Zhou has published 8 peer-reviewed publications in some of the most prestigious journals and conferences in his field, such as IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, Journal of Digital Imaging, CVPR, ICCV, and MICCAI. Moreover, he holds 1 US patent and additional 6 patents pending. He is the recipient of the MICCAI Young Scientist Award in 2019.
