CIALAB students have work accepted to OSU's Hayes Graduate Research Forum

Jeff Prescott, an MD/PhD student in the CIALAB, has had his recent research work accepted to the OSU Hayes Graduate Research Forum in the Engineering area. The accepted abstract, entitled, "Computerized muscle segmentation for osteoarthritis research," describes a method for the automated segmentation of the quadriceps muscles using a template-based level set approach. The segmentations are meant to be used in the analysis of the Osteoarthritis Initiative imaging dataset for biomarkers of OA incidence and progression.

Siddharth Samsi, a PhD student in the CIALAB also had his work accepted to the OSU Hayes Graduate Research Forum in the Engineering area. The abstract, entitled "A New Image of Cancer: Protein Signatures", describes the potential of utilizing Mass Spectrometry and image analysis for the diagnosis and grading of Follicular Lymphoma.

The Hayes Graduate Research Forum is meant to "recognize outstanding graduate student scholarship within the University" and consists of paper or poster presentations for students whose abstracts are accepted to the competition.

CIALAB encouraging talented young minds with summer internships

CIALAB is pleased to introduce the three interns namely Tong Gan, Rosana Rodriguez Milanes and Michael Priddy working through summer’09. Rosana Rodriguez Milanes - I am a third year undergraduate student in Electronic Engineering from Universidad del Norte, Colombia. My experience as a volunteer foreign student in the Clinical Image Analysis Laboratory has been an edifying, gratifying and enriching. Being able to participate, to learn and to collaborate in the Clinical Image Analysis Laboratory during the past two weeks has allowed me to improve my analytical and interpretative skills in processing histopathological and MRI images. I have been able to learn about segmentation, region growing, splitting and merging algorithms development. I have also had the privilege of knowing and interacting with excellent engineers who have helped me improve my skills as a foreign student. I am grateful for the opportunity that the Ohio State University has given me to collaborate and to learn with...

BMI researchers to receive prestigious Intramural Award

BMI researcher Metin Gurcan, PhD (Professor, Director of Division of Clinical and Translational Informatics) in collaboration with Anil Parwani, MD, PhD, MBA (Vice Chair of Pathology) and Cheryl Lee, MD (Chair of Urology) have been awarded one of the prestigious OSU Comprehensive Cancer Center Intramural Research Funding Awards. The research team for the project also includes Soledad Fernandez, PhD (BMI), Nancy Single (CCC), Khalid Niazi, PhD (BMI) and Brett Klamer, MS (BMI).   The two-year project, entitled Application of image analysis tools to accurately stage and risk stratify patients with T1 bladder cancer, will be primarily funded by Pelotonia dollars. Pelotonia is a three-day bike tour organized every year in Columbus to raise money for cancer research with one goal: “End Cancer.” Every rider-raised dollar goes to fund research at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center. Bladder cancer is an important disease that affects nearly 77,000 people annuall...
