Saeed Hassanpour

Biography

Saeed Hassanpour is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biomedical Data Science at Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth College, with adjunct appointments in the Computer Science and Epidemiology Departments. His research is focused on developing new computational methods to capture and organize clinically meaningful information from complex and massive amounts of biomedical data. His lab uses this distilled information to provide intelligent tools to help biomedical researchers understand their data better and assist clinicians in medical diagnosis and practice. Dr. Hassanpour completed his postdoctoral training in the Department of Radiology at Stanford University School of Medicine, where he developed novel computational methods to extract clinically significant information from radiology reports. Before his postdoctoral position at Stanford, he worked as a Research Engineer at Microsoft for more than 2 years. His research at Microsoft was focused on high-throughput semantic text analysis to extract user intents from Web search queries. He received his PhD in Electrical Engineering with a minor in Biomedical Informatics from Stanford University.
