Hi, this is Zifeng. I am the co-founder and head of AI at Keiji.AI. Before that, I did my PhD in Computer Science at Sunlab@UIUC, advised by Prof. Jimeng Sun. I develop AI to accelerate scientific discovery in medicine, specifically:
Literature research:accelerating the study search, screening, and data extraction from the literature to generate novel hypotheses and clinical evidence[1, 2]
Data science research:streamlining the data science hypothesis generation and validation based on medical and biomedical data via the collaboration of researchers and AI assistants[3]
Clinical research:developing AI models and workflows to enhance the design, execution, and analysis of clinical trials[4, 5, 6]
We've been building Keiji.AI, a startup focusing on AI for clinical trials.
We've partnered with leading pharmaceutical companies using AI to optimize eligibility criteria, streamline trial document drafting, and analyze real-world data.
