YLab: Empower Healthcare with Artificial Intelligence

YLab is an interdisciplinary research group at Zhejiang University, led by Prof. Jie Yang, our group members come from various disciplines such as computer science, medicine, public health, pharmaceutical sciences, and linguistics. Our interests focus on artificial intelligence in healthcare/public health and natural language processing. Specifically, we are interested in:

• Disease early-detection/diagnosis/treatment prediction using electronic health records and other clinical data sources;
• Big data analysis on healthcare-related data (e.g. artificial intelligence, telemedicine, social media).
• Natural language processing (e.g. deep learning, pre-trained language models).
