Dexuan HeAI for Medicine

AI for Medicine and Computational Pathology

I am Dexuan He, a postgraduate student at Shanghai Jiao Tong University working on AI for medicine, computational pathology, and spatial omics foundation models. My current research focuses on vision-language pathology models, whole-slide image analysis, rare cancer diagnosis, spatial omics, and clinically useful AI systems.

I am interested in building reliable AI systems that connect pathology images, biomedical knowledge, and clinical decision support. I also maintain public resources for computational pathology and release research artifacts when possible.

News

  • Apr 2026: Our work on few-shot prompt tuning for rare cancer subtyping was published in Nature Communications.
