Xinyue Huang

Chicago, IL

I am a PhD student in Biomedical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology and Emory University, working in the Ultrasound Imaging and Therapeutics Research Lab under the supervision of Dr. Stanislav Emelianov. During my PhD, I also earned a MS degree in Computer Science from the Georgia Institute of Technology, and I have interned with the Sensors Team at Meta Reality Labs.

My research focuses on ultrasound-based imaging techniques, including ultrasound, photoacoustic, elasticity, and Doppler imaging. I believe that ultrasound is a versatile tool capable of revealing far more information than we thought. I use signal processing and deep learning to develop new imaging methods and applications for multi-scale hemodynamic assessment.

Before joining GT/Emory, I completed my undergraduate studies in Biomedical Engineering at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, co-advised by Dr. Puxiang Lai and Dr. Chunyi Wen. I then earned my master’s degree in Biomedical Engineering from Johns Hopkins University, co-advised by Dr. Kai Ding and Dr. Muyinatu Bell.

I am originally from China, born in the south and raised in the northeast.
