Daniela Cabibi is a full Professor of Pathology at the School of Medicine, University of Palermo. She obtained her degree in Medicine and Surgery from the University of Palermo in July 1987 and her specialization diploma in Pathological Anatomy from the University of Milan in July 1991. She teaches many professional courses about the field of pathology at the Post-Graduate School of Pathology, University of Palermo. Her scientific output includes 156 publications, corresponding to 5038 citations (h-index 37) (Scopus, 1 December 2023).
Rosalba Parenti graduated in Pharmacy in 1989 at the University of Catania. She obtained her PhD in Neuroscience in 1995 at the University of L’Aquila. Since 2003, she has been a Full Professor of Physiology. She currently teaches Physiology for CdLM in Pharmacy; CdLM in Medicine and Surgery; CdLM in Medical Biotechnology; and CdL in biomedical laboratory techniques. She is a Coordinator of II Level Master in “Imaging molecolare e traslazionale: dalla preclinica alla clinica”. She is a Delegate of the Rector for the “Center for Advanced Preclinical in vivo Research” (CAPiR). She is a member of the Italian Physiological Society, of the American Physiological Society and of the Association of Cell Biology and Differentiation.
Anthony Yezzi is currently working as a Professor at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology. He obtained both his Bachelor’s degree and his Ph.D. at the Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Minnesota, with minors in mathematics and music. After completing his Ph.D., he continued his research as a post-doctoral Research Associate at the Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems at Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Boston, MA. His research interests fall broadly within the fields of image processing and computer vision. In particular, he is interested in curve and surface evolution theory and partial differential equation techniques as they apply to topics within these fields (such as segmentation, image smoothing and enhancement, optical flow, stereo disparity, shape from shading, object recognition, and visual tracking).
Dr. Albert Comelli is currently Senior Scientist in Biomedical Imaging at the Ri.MED Foundation, Palermo, Italy. In 2013 he received the Combined B.Sc’s/M.Sc’s Degree in Computer Science at the University of Catania with a thesis entitled “3D Visualization for Endoscopic Exploration and Telecontrol”, in 2020 the PhD in Computer Engineering at the University of Palermo discussing a thesis entitled “Image Processing, 3D Segmentation and Machine Learning Models to Classify and Delineate Tumor Volumes to Support Medical Decision” and in 2021 he received FELASA (n. F023 / 09) for Functions A, B, C and D accredited by the Ministry of Health, pursuant to Legislative Decree 5 August 2021 in Laboratory Animal Science (It covered the species: mice and rats and included the additional task specific modules: 20, 21, 22). Hi is Researcher affiliate long term at the Laboratory of Computational Computer Vision (LCCV) at School of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, Georgia, USA, at the Institute of Bioimaging and Molecular Physiology (IBFM-CNR), Palermo, Italy and at the National Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN), Catania, Italy.
In 2012 he carried out his thesis at the School of Engineering and Technology, University of Hertfordshire (UK) where he also obtained the title of MSc Projects. In 2014 he was awarded a research grant at the Department of Biopathology and Medical-Forensic Biotechnology (DIBIMEF) Radiology, University of Palermo.
