Daniel Rubin

Daniel Rubin is Assistant Professor of Radiology and of Medicine (Biomedical Informatics Research) at Stanford University. Dr. Rubin's lab lies at the intersection of biomedical informatics and imaging science. His NIH-funded research program focuses on developing informatics methods of knowledge representation, natural language processing, and decision support to improve the quality and consistency of radiology practice. Major projects include (1) developing methods to extract information and meaning from images for data mining, (2) developing statistical natural language processing methods to extract and summarize information in radiology reports and published articles, (3) resources to integrate images with related clinical and molecular data to discover novel image biomarkers of disease, and (4) translating these methods into practice by creating decision support applications that relate radiology findings to diagnoses and that will improve diagnostic accuracy and clinical effectiveness.
