My name is Peirong Liu (刘沛榕), I am a postdoctoral researcher at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital, working with Dr. Juan Eugenio Iglesias. Before that, I obtained my PhD in Computer Science at UNC-Chapel Hill, where I was beyond fortunate to work with my incredible advisor Dr. Marc Niethammer on computer vision and medical imaging. During my PhD, I spent two summers as a research intern at Meta AI computer vision team.
My research interest lies in AI for Biomedical Imaging, at an intersection of machine learning, computer vision, and medical imaging. My recent research topics include:
- Partial differential equations, optimal transport, physics-driven deep learning
- Generative models, modality-agnostic medical imaging foundation models
- Perfusion imaging, CT/MR imaging, stroke diagnosis
