Dear all,

Next Monday 16th we will host the presentation of Adrià Pérez. It will take place in room 52.S29 at 16:30. A brief bio and summary are provided below.

Bio:
Adria Perez-Rovira got his BSc in Computer Science at the UPF and an MSc on image analysis at the UAB, both in Barcelona. In 2011 he obtained a PhD in retinal image analysis at the University of Dundee (Scotland), where he had focused on non-rigid registration and quantification of retinal vasculature biomarkers. After a brief period working on automated detection and visualisation of stenosis in angiographic full body MRI at Ninewells Hospital (Dundee, Scotland) he moved to Rotterdam (the Netherlands) as a post-doc researcher at the Erasmus MC. In there he developed automated image analysis techniques to quantify and discover image biomarkers related to bronchiectasis and other lung-related diseases in MRI and CT like Pompe or cystic fibrosis.

Abstract:

Adria will talk about his latest research in thoracic image analysis and biomarker quantification that is allowing clinicians, and radiologists in particular, to gain a better understanding of disease-induced structural and dynamic changes in the lung.
