Nan Meng

Principle Scientist of CONOVA

Senior Researcher and Engineer

Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Medicine School, the University of Hong Kong.

Nan Meng received his B.S. degree (with distinction) in 2015 in Computer Science from the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC), and his Ph.D. degree in 2020 in Electric and Electronic Engineering from The University of Hong Kong. At HKU, he conducted research for image-based cancer diagnosis and released the first large-scale dataset for human somatic bright-field cells. He also conducted research for Light Field Reconstruction in Imaging Systems Laboratory supervised by Prof. Edmund Y. Lam. During his Ph.D., he has consulted for an AI company in the areas of multi-view imaging systems and HKU Medicine School about medical image processing and analysis. After graduation, Dr. Meng joined the Digital Health Laboratory in HKU as a research engineer.
