Biography

Ehsan Adeli is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences and holds a courtesy appointment in Biomedical Data Science at Stanford University. He is also the Director of the Stanford Translational AI Lab. His research primarily focuses on developing Translational Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms for medicine and mental health. His work explores automatic analysis of human activities and behaviors in videos, connecting how humans perform actions with brain activity as observed through magnetic resonance imaging (MRIs). Ehsan investigates explainable machine learning algorithms, aiming to uncover underlying factors affecting neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases in everyday life. His research encompasses digital humans and human neuroscience, analyzing 3D motion and behaviors through human sensing technologies and sensory video data, and employing clinical cognitive tests alongside neuroimaging techniques to enhance understanding of brain function. Ehsan's lab aims to integrate technology into clinical applications for deeper insights into the complexities of human behavior and brain function.
