Dr. Zhifeng Chen is a globally recognized expert in biomedical imaging, with a specialized focus on cutting-edge MRI acquisition strategies and advanced image reconstruction methodologies. Bridging the gap between academic research and industrial innovation, he currently holds the position of Principal Scientist and Clinical Research Collaboration Specialist at the Institute of Research and Clinical Innovations, Neusoft Medical Systems. Previously, he has served in prestigious research roles at Monash Biomedical Imaging, the University of Southern California, Harvard Medical School, and Massachusetts General Hospital.

Dr. Chen earned his Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from Zhejiang University. Over the past decade, his research has driven transformative progress in rapid neuroimaging, quantitative MRI, non-Cartesian acquisition, motion-robust dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI), precision motion correction, and deep learning-based medical imaging. He has authored over 80 peer-reviewed scientific publications, underscoring the depth, consistency, and international impact of his scholarly contributions.

His leadership spans numerous high-impact initiatives involving physics-informed deep learning, compressed sensing, low-rank subspace modeling, contrastive learning, and diffusion-based imaging frameworks. Beyond research, Dr. Chen plays an active role in the global scientific community as a reviewer for top-tier journals, a grant proposal evaluator, and a member of editorial boards, thereby shaping the direction and quality of medical imaging science worldwide.

Research Interest(s): MRI, Medical Physics, Inverse Problem, Signal Processing, Deep Learning

Research Interest: Another field of interest are the neurological manifestations linked to HTLV-1 and their pathogenesis. Dr Louboutin is currently in Jamaica trying to get a better understanding of the physiopathology of tropical spastic paraparesis/HTLV-1-associated myelopathy (TSP/HAM). The current collaboration with the Gene Therapy Program of the University of Pennsylvania is focused on gene therapy approach in different neurodegenerative disorders, (more particularly in lysosomal diseases, i.e., mucopolysaccharidosis, MPS).  Finally, Dr Louboutin is involved in cell therapy using stem cells in different tissues (i.e., bone marrow stem cells, skeletal muscle, Central Nervous System). This approach emphasizes the interaction with regenerative medicine in a translational context. Intramarrow gene delivery of SV40-derived vectors downregulating CCR5 resulted in the reduction of excitotoxin-induced seizures and their harmful consequences. These results emphasize the role of CCR5 in the immune-mediated process underlying some forms of epilepsy. He is the author of more than 80 papers in peer-reviewed journals and more than 10 book chapters

Research Interest:  Currently Dr. Leiser is the head of the Laboratory for Oral Cancer Research and is supervising M.Sc. students in basic science research. Dr. Leiser specializes in surgical oncology and surgical dental rehabilitation in the maxillofacial region. The author of several scientific and clinical manuscripts in international peer-reviewed journals, he has actively participated as a lecturer in several international and national conferences in the basic sciences as well as at professional maxillofacial surgery and oncology conferences.
