Xiaodan Xing is an AI/ML Engineer based in London with eight years of experience applying generative models and deep learning to biomedical imaging and drug discovery. She holds a PhD in Biomedical Engineering from Imperial College London and has transitioned academic innovations—VAEs, GANs, and diffusion models for 2D/3D medical image synthesis—into industry work at GSK. Her research has advanced microscopy immunofluorescence image synthesis and morphological feature engineering for cells and organoids, directly supporting downstream discovery and clinical decision support. Previously she developed fMRI preprocessing and diagnostic tools using graph neural networks, demonstrating a fluency across imaging modalities and model families. Known for communicating complex concepts as a teaching assistant and tutor, she blends rigorous research with applied engineering and an eye for practical deployment. An understated strength is her ability to translate cutting-edge generative AI techniques into tools that accelerate experimental workflows rather than just publish papers.
