Muhammad Nasir Ullah
Postdoctoral Scholar, Molecular Imaging Program at Stanford
BioMuhammad Nasir Ullah has received a BS degree in Electronic Engineering from International Islamic University, Islamabad (IIUI) Pakistan in Jun 2012 and an integrated MS + Ph.D. degree in Bio-Convergence Engineering from Korea University, Seoul, South Korea under the supervision of Professor Jung-Yeol Yeom in Feb 2020. His Ph.D. thesis was focused on detector design for Nuclear Medicine (NM) system and NM-Ultrasound hybrid systems.
His area of research interest is radiation detection and measurement for medical applications. He has been working on detector design for Positron Emission Tomography (PET) system, intraoperative gamma probe detector, beta/gamma discrimination, and hybrid Ultrasound-gamma probe. He has also been working on frontend discrete circuit designs for various types of radiation and Ultrasound (US) detectors. He has published 6 peer-reviewed articles as the first author while 2 as co-author. He also has 4-patents under his name in S. Korea. -
Jeya Maria Jose Valanarasu
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiology
BioDr. Jeya Maria Jose Valanarasu is a postdoctoral scholar working with the Stanford Machine Learning Group and the Center for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine and Imaging (AIMI Center). He leads the AI for Healthcare bootcamp with Dr. Andrew Ng, Dr. Curt Langlotz, and Dr. Nigam Shah which provides Stanford students an opportunity to engage in advanced research at the intersection of AI and healthcare.

Jie Wang
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiology
BioDr. Jie Wang is deeply passionate about magnetic nanotechnology, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic particle imaging (MPI), magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), magnetic nanofluid hyperthermia (MNFH), magnetic biosensors, etc., for biomedical applications. His dissertation focuses on MRI-guided magnetic hyperthermia for cancer theranostics. Currently, his research interests include developing enzyme-activable nanoparticles for brain cancer theranostics and employing multi-modal imaging modalities to investigate the interaction between nanoparticles and biosystems (nano-bio interaction) within tumor microenvironment.
