Changye Li’s Homepage

I’m Changye Li, a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Department of Biomedical Informatics and Medical Education at the University of Washington, under Prof. Trevor Cohen. My research interests include better adapting and developing natural language processing (NLP) and automatic speech recognition (ASR) models with biomedical/clinical and behavioral data. I recently obtained my Ph.D. in Health Informatics from the University of Minnesota, where I was very fortunate to be advised by Professor Serguei Pakhomov.

You can find my CV here.
