Ruiming Cao

Research Scientist at Chan Zuckerberg Imaging Institute.

I obtained my Ph.D. from UC Berkeley, where I was advised by Prof. Laura Waller and supported, in part, by Siebel Scholarship. I was also affiliated with the Berkeley Artificial Intelligence Research (BAIR). My research focuses on motion modeling and dynamic imaging. I jointly develop methods the optical system hardware and the computational modeling and algorithms to enhance our capabilities for observing and analyzing fast and complex dynamics. I work on various image modalities, including digital photography, optical microscopy, medical imaging, dynamic imaging sensors, and more recently cryo-ET. I was a research intern in Google Research in 2021 and an optical scientist intern in Meta Reality Labs Research in 2022.

I received M.S. in Computer Science from UCLA in 2019, where I was advised by Prof. Kyung Hyun Sung and Prof. Fabien Scalzo. He received B.S. in Computer Science and Applied Mathematics from UCLA where I worked with Prof. Song-Chun Zhu.

Besides research, I spend time on biking, running, hiking, reading. My name is pronounced as “Rei-Ming Tsao/Chao” :)
