Biography

Jinyi Qi a professor at the Department of Biomedical Engineering in the University of California, Davis. He was named Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers in 2014 for contributions to statistical image reconstruction for emission-computed tomography.


Research Interests

Dr. Qi aims to develop advanced image formation and processing tools to push the boundary of molecular imaging using positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT). His lab combines in silico modeling of tracer kinetics, imaging system response and human observation to create new image reconstruction algorithms and design future imaging systems that provide higher sensitivity and specificity for lesion detection and staging. His work has specific applications in fighting cancer and Alzheimer’s disease.
