About symposium

Dear colleagues, we invite you to take part in the International Webinar: «Controversies in glaucoma: artificial intelligence (AI) in diagnosis and monitoring», which will be held on November 10, 2023.

The use of AI in medicine is the most intriguing, full of contradictions, but at the same time extremely promising. It opens up the possibilities of personalized treatment. This fully applies to the use of AI in glaucoma.

Professor of Department of Ophthalmology of Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore. Scientific Faculty Member of SingHealth Duke-NUS Global Health Institute. Professor Cheng’s primary research interests are related to the epidemiology and genetics of major eye diseases. His current work involves in a variety of epidemiological, clinical, and image research on glaucoma. He directs the Singapore Epidemiology of Eye Diseases (SEED) Program, a large multi-disciplinary research program focusing on epidemiology, imaging and genetics on eye diseases in Singapore. Professor Cheng is on the editorial board of several international journals, including Scientific Reports, British Journal of Ophthalmology, Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, Translational Vision Science and Technology, and Ophthalmic Epidemiology. He has received a number of prestigious awards, including Clinician Scientist Award (CSA) from National Medical Research Council, Singapore in 2012 and 2017, the Asia-Pacific Academy of Ophthalmology (APAO) Achievement Award, APAO Outstanding Service in Prevention of Blindness Award, and American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) Achievement Award.

Assistant Professor Of Clinical Ophthalmology, Director of Inpatient Ophthalmology Service of Keck Hospital of USC. Dr. Xu’s primary research interest is preventing vision loss and blindness in patients at risk for angle closure glaucoma (ACG), a common type of glaucoma. His research focuses on studying the pathophysiology of ACG and improving the care of angle closure patients. Dr. Xu also uses advanced anterior segment imaging modalities including anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) to study the physiological and biomechanical properties of intraocular structures and aqueous outflow pathways. Finally, Dr. Xu works on designing biomedical devices to assess the function of anterior segment structures, such as the iris and trabecular meshwork. Dr. Xu has coauthored more than 30 peer-reviewed publications and a book on ocular imaging in glaucoma. He has also received numerous research awards, including those from the National Institutes of Health, American Glaucoma Society and Fight for Sight.
