Speakers
Parvati Dev
Dr. Dev serves as Director of the Stanford University Medical Media & Information Technologies (SUMMIT) Program, where she has led the Stanford University School of Medicine on innovating in the use of computers in medical education. SUMMIT researchers have been in the forefront in applying hypermedia, web, simulation and virtual reality to the learning of anatomy, surgery and other medical topics. Networked courseware, developed at SUMMIT, is in use in several medical courses at Stanford and elsewhere.
Dr. Dev completed her doctoral degree in Electrical Engineering at Stanford University in 1975. Since then, she has worked at M.I.T, the V.A. and Stanford on computational biology, and at CEMAX, an imaging company, on 3D medical imaging for surgical planning. At Stanford, her research is on Internet2 access to virtual reality and visualization learning environments, including simulation and game-based learning environments. She has a particular interest in collaborative learning environments implemented over high bandwidth networks and grid technologies.
