Steve Hui

Biography:

Steve graduated with his bachelor’s degree in Applied Science from the University of British Columbia in 2009. During his bachelor study, he spent a year working as a technologist for an engineering firm in Vancouver and Edmonton as part of his co-operative educational program. Immediately following, he was admitted to the graduate program in Biomedical Engineering at the Chinese University of Hong Kong and obtained his master’s degree in 2011. Steve then joined the radiology department at the Chinese University of Hong Kong as a research assistant in fall 2011 and enrolled as a Ph.D. student in summer 2014 under the supervision of Dr. Winnie Chu. During his Ph.D. study, he focused on the development of automated algorithm for lipid segmentation using MR imaging and studied the etiology of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease using MR spectroscopy. He received his Ph.D. degree in 2018.

Since 2019, Steve is a postdoctoral fellow in Richard Edden’s group at the Johns Hopkins University. His main research interests lay in the development of new sequences for brain MR spectroscopy. He has been participated in the HBCD study a large NIH-funded study of early-childhood brain development involving 25 sites around the US. He has also involved in a couple of other collaborative studies including the investigation of frequency drift which included 80 participating sites using over 100 3T MR scanners from 3 major vendors, and the study to investigate the relationship between age and macromolecular concentrations. Steve has also developed the MRSCloud, a cloud-based platform for generating metabolite basis sets for linear-combination modeling analysis, which aims to help community users to acquire basis sets in a reliable and convenient manner.
