Title:<\/strong>
\nComputational Modeling and Enhancement of Human Skill: A Step Toward Surgery as a Data Science<\/p>\n

Guest Speaker:<\/strong>
\nGregory D. Hager, PhD
\nMandell Bellmore Professor of Computer Science
\nComputational Interaction and Robotics Laboratory
\nDepartment of Computer Science

\nPlace:<\/strong> Stevenson Center 5326<\/p>\n

Abstract:<\/span><\/b> We are entering an era where people will interact with smart machines to enhance the physical aspects of their lives, just as smart mobile devices have revolutionized how we access and use information. Nowhere is this more true than medicine: robots already provide surgeons with physical enhancements that improve their ability to cure disease, new imaging and sensing systems promise to provide more and, more nuanced, data on patients, and mobile devices are already are making their way into many aspects of medical practice.\u00a0 In this talk, I will describe our work on surgical skill assessment and enhancement to frame some of the broader science, technology, and commercial trends that are converging to fuel progress on human-machine collaborative enhancements in medicine. I will describe how technologies like surgical robots can be used to observe surgeons \u201cat work\u201d and to define a \u201clanguage of surgery\u201d from data, mirroring the statistical revolution in speech processing. I will show our latest results of using these models to recognize, assess, and intelligently augment surgeons\u2019 capabilities.\u00a0 I will close with a few thoughts about how this could lead toward a more rigorous study of surgery as a data science.<\/span><\/div>\n

Speaker Bio:<\/span><\/b> Gregory D. Hager is the Mandell Bellmore Professor of Computer Science at Johns Hopkins University. His research interests include collaborative and vision-based robotics, time-series analysis of image data, and medical applications of image analysis and robotics.\u00a0 He has published over 300 articles and books in these areas. Professor Hager is also Chair of the Computing Community Consortium, a board member of the Computing Research Association, and is currently a member of the governing board of the International Federation of Robotics Research. In 2014, he was awarded a Hans Fischer Fellowship in the Institute of Advanced Study of the Technical University of Munich where he also holds an appointment in Computer Science.\u00a0 He is a fellow of the IEEE\u00a0 and of the MICCAI society, and has served on the editorial boards of IEEE TRO, IEEE PAMI, and IJCV. Professor Hager received his BA in Mathematics and Computer Science Summa Cum Laude at Luther College (1983), and his MS (1986) and PhD (1988) from the University of Pennsylvania. He was a Fulbright Fellow at the University of Karlsruhe, and was on the faculty of Yale University prior to joining Johns Hopkins. He is founding CEO of Clear Guide Medical.<\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
