Jiayu Lei (雷佳谕)

Hi, I currently work at the Medical AI Lab of Alibaba DAMO Academy, focusing on 3D medical image analysis.

I am a joint PhD student at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) and the Shanghai Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (Shanghai AI Lab), advised by Prof. Weidi Xie and Prof. Ya Zhang.

My research interests center on rtificial Intelligence for Healthcare (AI4Health), with a current emphasis on 3D medical imaging and multimodal medical models.
