About


Hello there! I go by the name Hao Chen, but feel free to call me Calvin too. I hail from the beautiful Cantonese region in southeastern China. Currently, you can find me diving deep into the realm of AI as an active explorer at the MI+x Lab in the University of Birmingham. Additionally, I proudly serve as an honorary Research Assistant at the Department of Clinical Neuroscience at the University of Cambridge. I earned my MSc in Computer Science from the University of Birmingham under the expert guidance of Prof Jianbo Jiao. My passion lies in sculpting better representations by delving into diverse modalities and easing the reliance on supervision. These interests find their purpose in tackling vision and healthcare challenges, specifically in the realms of Image Processing/Segmentation/Generation and the captivating world of Medical Imaging.

I'm gearing up to dive into the captivating world of neuroimaging analysis and generation with a special emphasis on Trustworthiness for my upcoming PhD journey at the Department of Clinical Neuroscience at Cambridge.
