Barton Lane
Professor of Radiology (Diagnostic Radiology) at the Stanford University Medical Center, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsAs a professor in the Medical Center Line, my primary investigative interest has been in clinical neuroradiology. This encompasses spinal cord and spine disease, degenerative and demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system, strokes and infarction, and chronic epilepsy syndromes. Facial and head and neck vascular malformations and hemangiomas have been a focus of interest for many years, with collaborative projects involving dermatology and functional restoration services.

Curtis Langlotz
Professor of Radiology (Thoracic Imaging) and of Biomedical Informatics Research at the Stanford University Medical Center
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am interested in the use of deep neural networks and other machine learning technologies to help radiologists detect disease and eliminate diagnostic errors. My laboratory is developing deep neural networks that detect and classify disease on medical images. We also develop natural language processing methods that use the narrative radiology report to create large annotated image training sets for supervised machine learning experiments.

Yi Liu
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Molecular Imaging Program at Stanford
BioI received my medical degree from Chongqing Medical University in China, followed by internship in emergency medicine from Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital in Paris and residency in critical care medicine from Chongqing Medical University Affiliated Second Hospital in China. I proceeded then with subspecialty fellowship training in respiratory critical care medicine and severe infection at Chongqing Medical University Affiliated Second Hospital in China. Then I completed Ph.D. in molecular imaging and gynecological cancer at Chongqing Medical University, Chongqing, China. I am continuing my research as a postdoctoral fellow at the Stanford School of Medicine.
I have an interest in sepsis, infection immunology, respiratory failure, and nanomedicine. During my Ph.D. and the present role as a postdoctoral researcher, my research contributions mainly focused on investigating nano-enabled methods for targeted therapy and pre-clinical diagnostic interventions. For example, sepsis early detection using circulating biomarkers and molecular imaging, as well as establishment, characterization, and evaluation of various nanoformulations for targeted delivery of theranostic nanomaterials and siRNA/microRNA to cancer models. Years of clinical and research experiences have given me an integrated research aptitude with translation significance. -
