Professor Honghan Wu

  • Professor of Health Informatics and AI (Public Health)

Biography

I am a Professor of Health Informatics and AI at the School of Health and Wellbeing, University of Glasgow. Before my current position, I was an associate professor at the Institute of Health Informatics (2020 May - 2024 April), UCL. I current hold an honorary associate professor position at UCL, continuing my research projects and supervisions. I am a former (2020-2023) Turing Fellow of The Alan Turing Institute and a Rutherford Fellow (2018-2022) of the Health Data Research UK. I got my BEng and PhD degrees from Southeast University, China. I worked in the industry for about six years primarily as a software developer before my PhD study.

My research lab website is at https://knowlab.github.io/, I also co-lead the Edinburgh Clinical Natural Language Processing group: https://www.ed.ac.uk/usher/clinical-natural-language-processing and co-organise the Turing Health Equity group: https://www.turing.ac.uk/research/interest-groups/health-equity.

Research interests

Machine learning, natural language processing, knowledge graph and their applications in medicine. Details of my research and team updates can be found at https://knowlab.github.io/.
