Faculty of Biomedical Informatics & Data Science and of Surgery
Biography
Kuo is a faculty member of biomedical informatics and data science and of surgery at Yale School of Medicine. He earned his PhD from National Taiwan University (NTU) in the Institute of Networking and Multimedia.
Kuo was previously assistant professor of medicine at University of California San Diego (UCSD) Health's Department of Biomedical Informatics (DBMI). Prior to becoming a faculty member, he was a Postdoctoral Scholar at UCSD DBMI and received the UCSD Chancellor’s Outstanding Postdoctoral Scholar Award. He was a major contributor towards the UCSD DBMI team winning the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) healthcare blockchain challenge, and also the NTU team winning the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining (KDD) Cup competition four times.
Kuo was awarded a NIH R01 Research Project Grant, a K99/R00 Pathway to Independence Award with an Administrative Supplement, a R13 Support for Conferences and Scientific Meetings Grant, as well as UCSD Academic Senate Health Science Research Grants, for blockchain-based and predictive biomedical, healthcare and genomic studies. His research focuses on blockchain-based predictive modeling, blockchain technologies, and machine learning.
