Director
Professor and Chair, Department of Computer Science
Dr. Hahn has been interested in basic research within the broad scope of
computer graphics as well as their application in a number of important
domains. He has led the development of a number of surgical training simulators
and image-guided surgical procedures. He is the founding co-director of the
Laboratory for Advanced Computer Applications in Medicine (LACAM) and the
founding director of the Institute for Computer Graphics (ICG) and the
Institute for Biomedical Engineering.

Xiuzhen (Susan) Cheng, Ph.D is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the George Washington University. Dr. Cheng's research interests are centered on algorithm design and analysis targeting problems originated from wireless networks and computational medicine. She has been working on a clustering-based prognostic system to predict the outcome of cancer patients. Currently her research is mainly focused on the development and application of machine learning techniques to evaluate and identify risk factors for cancer and conduct clinical outcome and survival prediction. Dr. Cheng was a program director of the National Science Foundation for six months in 2006. She received the NSF CAREER Award in 2004.

Dr. Loew has been focusing on medical imaging as it can be used in diagnosis and treatment. One major
area of research is multimodality image registration, in which several kinds of
images (e.g., MRI and CT) are used together to provide more information than
either could alone. His work has led to several approaches to compression and
its quantitative evaluation using clinical data.

Dr. Mittal is focusing his research on the use of large-scale computer
simulations for examining physiological flows. One area of focus is
cardiovascular flows where computer simulations have been used to gain a better
understanding of blood flow in stenosed arteries and associated bioacoustic
signatures. A second area of focus is laryngeal dynamics as it relates to voice
production, voice disorders and surgical planning. He directs the activities of
the Flow Simulation and Analysis Group in MAE where in the last three years, he
has been PI of projects from AFOSR, ONR, NASA, ARO and Dupont Corporation.
