Ying Xu is a Chair Professor in the
School of Medicine, Southern University of Science and
Technology, China since January 2023. He is also a
Cheungkong Scholar Chair Professor (2008 -) and Qianren
Chair Professor (2012 -). Before that, he was a Regent
Professor and the Georgia Research Alliance Eminent Scholar
Chair in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular
Biology (2003 – 2022/12) and the Founding Director of the
Institute of Bioinformatics, the University of Georgia, USA
(2003-2011). He is an AAAS Fellow and an IEEE Fellow. He has
been a computational biologist since 1993 when he joined the
Oak Ridge National Laboratory to take part in the Human
Genome Project, where he worked for ten years and moved up
the career ladder from a research associate to a senior
staff scientist and group leader. He has published over 400
research papers and five books, including the world's first
monograph “Cancer Bioinformatics”. His H-Index is 73 with
more than 21000 citations in scholar.google. He received his
Ph.D. in theoretical computer science from the University of
Colorado in 1991 and earlier degrees from Jilin University,
China.

received more than 30 research grants and published more than
170 papers, and acquired a third-class prize of progress of
science and technology of Sichuan Province in 2012. Her
current research interests include Biomedical signal/image
processing and Bioinformatics.
Speech Title:"Recurrence and Survival
Prediction of Postoperative Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastasis
Patients based on Multimodal Data"
Abstract: Postoperative colorectal cancer
liver metastasis (PCRLM) patients have high recurrence and low
survival rates, severely affecting patient 's quality of life.
Prediction of recurrence and survival will help doctors make
treatment decisions and so will reduce the risk of death for
PCRLM patients. This study is to develop non-invasive,
multimodal data-driven methods for enhancing prognosis
prediction accuracy in PCRLM patients. Methods: The mutual
information, Spearman correlation, and recursive feature
elimination technologies were used to screen
recurrence-related clinical and radiomics features and then
logistic regression classifier is used to construct a
recurrence prediction model. Univariate and multivariate COX
regression models are further applied to analyze long-term
recurrence risk and survival risk, examining the relationship
between recurrence risk and time. Results: The recurrence
prediction model's AUCs in 1, 2, 3, and 5-year recurrence time
surpass other related models. The recurrence risk analysis
showed that high-risk patients commonly recurred within 2
years, whereas low-risk cases had extended recurrence times.
The proposed survival risk model has a C-index outperformed
the comparison methods. The extrahepatic diseases and the
liver’s residual feature from CT images are two key recurrence
and survival risk prediction factors.
Assoc. Prof. Md Nurunnabi
University of
Mississippi, USA
Visiting Professor, Korea National University
of Transportation, South Korea
Md Nurunnabi recently relocated to Korea
with acceptance of Brain Pool Fellowship sponsored by
NRF-Korea to join the College of Engineering at Korea National
University of Transportation. Previously, he worked as an
Assistant professor at University of Texas at El Paso, and as
an Associate Professor at University of Mississippi. Prior to
starting his faculty career in 2019, he has completed a
postdoctoral training at Harvard and received his MS+PhD from
Korea National University of Transportation. Prof. Nurunnabi
has published over 100 peer-reviewed articles, and inventor of
over 20 patents, that generated over 6000 citations with an
H-index of 42. Currently he is in the editorial board of
several journals including ACS Biomaterials Science &
Engineering, ACS Applied Nano Materials, Journal of Controlled
Release, and Drug Delivery and Translational Research. Over
the years, he has generated more than US$ 10M research grants
from federal, state and private sponsors, and led to form
several biotech/biomed start-ups.
Dr. Neha
Kent State University, USA
Dr. Neha is an Instructor of Artificial
Intelligence in the Department of Computer Science at Kent
State University and holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science from
Kent State University, USA. She has over seven years of
experience in research, teaching, and academic service. Her
work spans artificial intelligence, computer vision,
biomedical image analysis, and data-driven healthcare. Her
research focuses on deep learning and multimodal AI frameworks
integrating CT radiology, radiomics, and pathology-derived
features to improve diagnostic accuracy and interpretability
for small renal masses and renal cell carcinoma (RCC)
