Yao Lu, the founder of PVmed, is an expert of "The Recruitment Program of Global Young Professionals ", leader of national medical imaging major project, researcher of University of Michigan Medical School, core member of GE medical mammography and CAD project. He has more than 10 years of experience in medical imaging post-processing, medical imaging analysis and AI research. The total amount of national research projects hosted by him is more than 20 million yuan. He is also professor, doctoral supervisor and chief of computational medical imaging laboratory, Sun Yat-sen University. He is experienced in team building and talent training in top institutions.

Shanghai University of Medicine & Health Science is one of the largest undergraduate colleges in medical imaging in China. The list of its teaching hospitals contains several tertiary-A hospitals in Shanghai such as Zhongshan Hospital, Huashan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University, Renji Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai Chest Hospital and Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital. They have advantages in clinical medical data and imaging.

Shanghai University of Medicine & Health Science will establish cooperative relationship with PVmed based on the “Joint Laboratory of Medical Imaging Intelligent Diagnosis”. They hope to cooperate with PVmed to develop and clinically validate the technologies for medical imaging intelligent diagnosis based on PVmed's technical advantages in medical AI and big data. At the same time, they hope the joint Laboratory will help them to develop frontier technology of Intelligent image analysis, new mechanism of talent training and discipline construction.

After establishing long-term relationships with a number of affiliated hospitals of Sun Yat-sen University, the establishment of this joint laboratory shows that PVmed has gained more recognition from domestic medical imaging institutions by its world's top R&D capabilities and the best team in the medical AI area. By now, PVmed's partners include most top tertiary-A hospitals in South China, East China and North China. Different from other AI companies, PVmed pay more attention to the clinical pain points instead of focusing on commercial operations. Based on the leading R&D capabilities, PVmed cooperate with many domestic top medical institutions on research projects and AI products to solve the clinical and technical problems. PVmed is also committed to providing advanced technology and talent training mechanism for the medical AI industry.
