Biosketch

Dr. Chen has a strong background in computational neuroscience, machine learning, neuroimaging, and clinical and translational research. Dr. Chen’s research focuses on leveraging machine learning and neuroimaging to understand the relationship between brain and behavior across scales, leading to next-generation AI, a deeper understanding of mechanisms of cognition, emotion, and decision making, and novel therapeutic concepts for brain disease such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, substance use disorder, autism, sickle cell disease, and HIV. He has 20 years of experience in advanced modeling, algorithm, and software development. He has released two open-source biomedical data mining software packages on NITRC: the GAMMA suite and Advanced Connectivity Analysis.

Dr. Chen is Associate Vice Chair of AI, Department of Diagnostic Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, University of Maryland School of Medicine. He is a senior member of IEEE.
