Personal profile

Biography

Dr. Jinming Duan received his PhD from the University of Nottingham in 2018, followed by postdoctoral research at Imperial College London. In 2019, he joined the University of Birmingham as a lecturer and was awarded Honorary Associate Professor in 2024. Later that year, he became an Associate Professor at the University of Manchester.

Dr. Duan has published over 140 papers in leading journals such as The Lancet, Nature Machine Intelligence, TPAMI, TMI, and TIP, with a focus on machine learning and imaging methods in medical and cardiovascular applications. He has presented his work at major conferences like MICCAI, CVPR, ECCV, ICCV, NeurIPS, and AAAI. His research has been cited over 5,000 times on Google Scholar, with three papers recognised as Highly Cited by ESI. He holds five patents and has led or contributed to research projects, including international PhD scholarships, with funding totalling around £1.2 million.

In 2021, Dr. Duan was named a Turing Fellow by The Alan Turing Institute for his contributions to AI and data science. He is also a Fellow of the UK Higher Education Academy (HEA) and serves on an Associate Editor for three scientific journals, including IEEE TNNLS. Dr. Duan has received numerous awards, including 2nd place in the 2023 MICCAI Learn2Reg Challenge, 2nd place in the 2023 ISBI RnR-ExM Challenge, 1st place in the 2022 MICCAI Learn2Reg Challenge, and 2nd place in the 2019 Facebook fastMRI International Challenge. He also received the Outstanding Research Project Award at the 2022 CHORUS Seoul Conference, the 2018 NVIDIA GPU Grant, and the Chinese Government Award for Outstanding Self-financed Students Abroad in 2016, the highest national recognition for Chinese PhD students studying overseas. Early in his career, he earned several Student Travel Grants, the Shandong Province Best Master’s Thesis Award, and the Shandong Province Graduate Student Science and Technology Award.
