About the speaker

Dr. Sylvia K. Plevritis is Professor and Chair at Stanford's Department of Biomedical Data Science, Professor of Radiology at Stanford University, and Program Director of the Stanford Biomedical Informatics Graduate Training Program. She leads a computational biology cancer research program that bridges genomic, imaging and population sciences to decipher properties of cancer progression and treatment response.

Dr. Plevritis received her Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and M.S. in Health Services Research, both from Stanford University, with a focus on cancer imaging physics and predictive modeling of cancer outcomes, respectively. She is a fellow of the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE) and Distinguished Investigator in the Academy of Radiology Research. She serves on the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Board of Scientific Advisors, the Program Leadership Committee of the Stanford Cancer Institute and the Leadership Council of the Stanford Bio-X Program.

Dr. Plevritis has served on numerous NIH study sections, chaired scientific programs for the several professional societies including the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) and presented keynote lectures across multiple scales of computational cancer biology and outcomes. Currently, she is the Program Director of the Stanford Center in Cancer Systems Biology (CCSB) and has been a Principal Investigator with the NCI Cancer Intervention Surveillance Network (CISNET) for over fifteen years. She has served as Program Director of the Stanford Cancer Systems Biology Scholars Program (CSBS), and co-Division Chief of Integrative Biomedical Imaging Informatics at Stanford (IBIIS).
