Adam Wang
Assistant Professor of Radiology (Radiological Sciences Laboratory) and, by courtesy, of Electrical Engineering
BioMy research group develops technologies for advanced x-ray and CT imaging, including artificial intelligence for CT acquisition, reconstruction, and image processing; spectral imaging, including photon counting CT (PCCT) and dual-layer flat-panel detectors; novel system and detector designs; and their applications in diagnostic imaging and image-guided procedures. I am also the Director of the Photon Counting CT Lab, Zeego Lab, and Tabletop X-Ray Lab.
I completed my PhD in Electrical Engineering at Stanford, developing strategies for maximizing the information content of dual energy CT and photon counting detectors. I then pursued a postdoctoral fellowship at Johns Hopkins in the I-STAR Lab, developing reconstruction and registration methods for x-ray based image-guided surgery. I was then a Senior Scientist at Varian Medical Systems, developing x-ray/CT methods for image-guided radiation therapy, before returning to Stanford in 2018, where I now lead a comprehensive research program in advanced x-ray and CT imaging systems and methods, with funding from NIH, DOD, DOE, and industry partners. -

Dakuo Wang
Visiting Associate Professor, Computer Science
BioDakuo Wang is a Visiting Associate Professor at Stanford University, and an Associate Professor at Northeastern University, jointly appointed at Khoury College of Computer Sciences and the College of Arts, Media and Design. At Northeastern, Dakuo Wang leads the Northeastern University Human-Centered AI Lab (NEU HAI), and he is also the Founding Director of the AI Application Graduate Program. His research lies at the intersection of human-computer interaction (HCI) and artificial intelligence (AI), with a focus on the exploration, development, and evaluation of human-centered AI (HCAI) systems to achieve human-AI collaboration.
Before joining Northeastern, Dakuo Wang was a Senior Staff Member at IBM Research, Principal Investigator at MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab, and a Visiting Scholar at Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (Stanford HAI). He got his Ph.D. from the University of California Irvine (advisor: Judith Olson and Gary Olson). He has worked as a designer, researcher, and engineer in the U.S., China, and France. He serves in organizing committees, program committees, and editorial boards for a variety of venues, and ACM has recognized him as an ACM Distinguished Speaker. -
Emily Wang
Masters Student in Computer Science, admitted Autumn 2026
BioEmily is a Software Engineer at Meta working within Reality Labs’ Wearables with interests in AI, machine learning, agentic systems, and multimodal computing. She earned dual bachelor’s degrees in Computer Science and Software Engineering from UC Irvine, where she worked on research involving intelligent systems, computer vision, and multi-agent pathfinding.
Alongside her work at Meta, Emily is pursuing Stanford’s part-time MS in Computer Science through the Honors Cooperative Program, with a specialized focus on AI-powered spatial audio, XR immersive sonics, and edge adaptive AI systems for wearable devices. She is particularly interested in combining strong software engineering with AI research to build practical, reliable systems for voice, spatial audio, wearables, and human-centered AI. Her long-term goal is to contribute to meaningful AI products while developing deeper research expertise in AI systems and multimodal intelligence.She is open to academic and industry collaboration opportunities. -
