Career Sketch: Dr. Baowei Fei is a Georgia Cancer Coalition Distinguished Scholar at Emory University and Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, Georgia. He is a faculty member in the Department of Radiology and Imaging Sciences and the Department of Mathematics and Computer Sciences at Emory University. He is also a faculty member in the Joint Department of Biomedical Engineering at Emory University and Georgia Institute of Technology. Dr. Fei presented internationally and is widely published in medical imaging. He serves as an Associate Editor for Medical Physics, an Editorial Board Member for multiple journals including Clinical Medicine Insight - Urology and Advances in Molecular Imaging, a Program Committee Member for SPIE Medical Imaging, and a reviewer for more than 12 international journals in medical imaging. He received numerous awards including the U.S. Department of Defense Post-doctoral Fellowship Award and the Young Investigator Award from the Society of Nuclear Medicine. In his Quantitative BioImaging Laboratory (QBIL) (http://www.feilab.org/), his current research projects include: (i) Molecular image-directed, 3D ultrasound guided biopsy; (ii) Advanced computer algorithms for medical image registration, classification, segmentation and quantification, (iii) Technology development and applications of multimodality imaging (optical, ultrasound, CT, MRI, PET), and (iv) Image-guided therapy including photodynamic therapy. Dr. Fei enjoys teaching and mentoring undergraduate and graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, residents, and medical students when they undertake research projects in his research laboratory. Dr. Fei has severed as a Principal Investigator for multiple federal grants including NIH R21 and R01 grants. He severed in various national panels including NIH study sections.
