Hi! My name is Chen Jin, and I’m a research scientist at the Centre for Artificial Intelligence (CAI) at Data Science & Artificial Intelligence, AstraZeneca (UK). My research focuses on Large Multimodal Generative Models, Vision-Language Human-Machine Interactions, Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing for Healthcare, and Predictive Models.

Previously, I was a research assistant at the Centre for Medical Image Computing (CMIC) at UCL’s AI Centre, where I worked on Multimodal-Multiscale-Multitask representation learning, image generation and mapping. I have also developed attention-based learnable sampling methods for either data efficient or computation efficient machine learning, and applied on segmentation of large volume high-resolution images.

Externally, I got the privilege to collaborate closely with Dr Ryutaro Tanno from Google DeepMind, Prof. Daniel Alexander from CMIC UCL and Prof Mihaela van der Schaar from Artificial Intelligence and Medicine at the University of Cambridge.

I obtained my PhD in Computational Geoscience at the Institute of GeoEnergy Engineering, Heriot-Watt University. My thesis was about developing a Hierarchical Digital Rock Analysis Workflow, involving machine learning-based multi scale-modal image fusion, reconstruction and fluid simulation.
