Reza Khorshidi

I lead the Machine Learning and Biomedical Informatics program at the University of Oxford and am the Head of Quantitative Analytics, EMEA and Special Projects Lab with AIG. I also holds an adjunct fellowship with The University of Oxford's Centre for Functional MRI of the Brain (FMRIB), and am a principal scientist with the Human Connectome Project (an ambitious attempt to pinpoint the brain’s information-processing principals/networks). 

My interests include biomedical informatics (e.g., neuroinformatics and medical imaging), healthcare (e.g., technology-enabled delivery of care, and decision-support systems), machine learning (e.g., deep learning, representation learning, Bayesian statistics, computer vision, and network inference), and big data technologies (Spark and high-performance computing platforms) in finance and biomedicine.

I received my DPhil in computational neuroscience and machine learning from The University of Oxford (Linacre College) in 2010 - supervised by professors Stephen Smith and Thomas Nichols.
