Biography

Ehsan Adeli is an Assistant Professor (Research) in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University, with courtesy appointments in the Department of Computer Science and the Department of Biomedical Data Science. His research focuses on developing Translational Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms for medicine and mental health, addressing critical problems in healthcare and neuroscience. He explores automatic analysis of human activities and behaviors captured through videos, connecting these actions to brain functions as revealed through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Adeli's work also delves into explainable machine learning algorithms, aiming to uncover the underlying factors in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases that affect everyday life. His academic contributions include serving as an Associate Editor for notable journals such as Medical Image Analysis and IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging. Ehsan's research is interdisciplinary, integrating human neuroscience and advanced machine learning techniques to improve clinical applications and enhance the understanding of complex human behaviors.
