Title: Computing the Future of Biomedicine

Advanced techniques in biomedical computing, imaging, and  
visualization are already changing the face of biology and medicine in  
both research and clinical practice. These techniques have the  
potential to provide comprehensive models and views of the human body  
in unprecedented depth and detail. As a result, biomedical computing  
and visualization will help produce exciting new biomedical scientific  
discoveries and clinical treatments. In this talk, I will discuss the  
state of the art in biomedical computing, medical imaging, and  
visualization research and present examples of their vital roles in  
cardiology, neuroscience, neurosurgery, and radiology.

Refreshments will be served after the talk in RY 255.
