Rajat Mittal's personal webpage
    Associate Professor, Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering
Dr. Mittal is focusing his research on the use of large-scale computer simulations for examining physiological flows. One area of focus is cardiovascular flows where computer simulations have been used to gain a better understanding of blood flow in stenosed arteries and associated bioacoustic signatures. A second area of focus is laryngeal dynamics as it relates to voice production, voice disorders and surgical planning. He directs the activities of the Flow Simulation and Analysis Group in MAE where in the last three years, he has been PI of projects from AFOSR, ONR, NASA, ARO and Dupont Corporation.

Associate Professor, Department of Computer Science
Xiuzhen (Susan) Cheng, Ph.D is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the George Washington University. Dr. Cheng's research interests are centered on algorithm design and analysis targeting problems originated from wireless networks and computational medicine. She has been working on a clustering-based prognostic system to predict the outcome of cancer patients. Currently her research is mainly focused on the development and application of machine learning techniques to evaluate and identify risk factors for cancer and conduct clinical outcome and survival prediction. Dr. Cheng was a program director of the National Science Foundation for six months in 2006. She received the NSF CAREER Award in 2004.
