I am a Professor at Department of Biomedical Informatics and Department of Computer Science
at Stony Brook University. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from University of California, Los Angeles, and M.S. and B.S. in Engineering Physics from Tsinghua University.
Prior to joining Stony Brook University, I was an assistant professor at Emory University.
I was a research scientist at Siemens Corporate Research (Princeton, NJ) before joining Emory University.
My research covers Spatial Big Data Management, AI in Healthcare, Medical Imaging Informatics, Clinical Informatics, Population Health and Opioid Epidemic Research, and Assistive Technologies
I received an NSF CAREER award on High Performance Spatial Queries and Analytics for Spatial Big Data in 2014.
Recent Services: PC Co-Chair, IEEE BIBM 2026;
Workflow Chair, ICDM 2025;
General Co-Chair, IEEE BigData 2024;
General Co-Chair, ACM SIGSPATIAL 2021; General Co-Chair, SIGSPATIAL 2020.

We have been awarded the 2024 Test of Time award from the Very Large Database (VLDB) Endowment, for our paper
"Hadoop GIS: a high performance spatial data warehousing system over mapreduce" published in 2013.
The paper has made significant contributions to the creation of an ecosystem for big spatial analytics that is currently widely adopted
for its merits of large-scale capacity, scalability, compatibility with low-cost commodity processors, and open-source accessibility,
making it indispensable in the society for various applications.
