Peizhao (Percy) Li

Bio

My name is Peizhao Li, pronounced as 'Pay-Jow Lee' and written as '李沛钊' in Chinese. I am an AI Research Scientist at GE HealthCare, working on LLMs & Foundation Models for healthcare applications. I am based in Bellevue, WA. Prior to this, I received my Ph.D. from Brandeis University in 2024. Throughout my Ph.D. studies, I had the opportunity to work as a research intern at Google Research, Amazon Alexa AI, Adobe Research, Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories (MERL), NEC Laboratories America, and also as a research fellow at Harvard University.

I research and develop Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. I have worked on several topics such as Responsible AI, Multimodal Learning, Computer Vision, and Natural Language Processing. In my Ph.D. thesis 'Harmonizing Fairness with Utility in Data and Learning,' I developed methods from both computational and data-centric perspectives to make machine learning models fair and non-discriminatory, and simultaneously have no or minimal side effects on utility performance. My research work was recognized by a NIJ Graduate Research Fellowship, a Meta Ph.D. Research Fellowship Finalist, and a CVPR Best Paper Award.

I was very fortunate to have Prof. Hongfu Liu as my Ph.D. advisor.
