Biography

About Hooman Rashidi, MD

Dr. Rashidi combines his passion for patient care and education with his unique training in bioinformatics and machine learning (ML) to create innovative new tools and resources that improve clinical practice, research and education.

His experience in ML dates back to his graduate years at UCSD which subsequently allowed him to serve as the principal author and editor of several popular bioinformatics textbooks. This background has also enabled him to develop various novel AI-ML platforms. Before joining the Cleveland Clinic as the Director of PLMI’s Center for Artificial Intelligence and Data Science & Vice Chair of Technology Innovation & Computational Pathology, he served as the Director of AI for University of California Davis Medical Center and Professor & Vice chair of informatics and Computational pathology (until Dec 2021), leading a large number of AI / ML studies with numerous collaborators from various prominent institutions. These studies have led to numerous products and filed patents along with a large number of manuscripts in which he serves as corresponding author. One of his most exciting & well-established inventions is the proprietary Automated Machine Learning (Auto-ML) software MILO (Machine Intelligence Learning Optimizer). MILO”s suite of applications includes its powerful Auto-ML platform and 6 unique complimentary preprocessing and statistics Data Science Apps which have been licensed to several industry and academic institutions & serving as a powerful suite of data science tools for a large number of clinical, quality and educational projects.

Most recently, he has also developed a new powerful novel automated synthetic data generator known as STNG (Synthetic Tabular Neural Generator) that will be available soon to all (through Cleveland Clinic) to help revolutionize our research & quality study realm by addressing various data access and data optimization needs.

In addition to the above, he is also a well-known educator with numerous teaching awards who has created some of the AppStore’s most popular hematology Apps. He is also the co-founder and senior editor of HematologyOutlines, a very popular online hematology atlas that is used internationally and endorsed by the American Society of Clinical Pathology.

Dr. Rashidi’s efforts in the AI-ML & digital space are widely recognized, as evidenced by his continuous invited talks (at numerous prestigious conferences / institutions), his various editorial & reviewer roles, the multitude of key invited review articles & his continued national committee roles within this space.
