Yiming Xiao graduated from the honours program of B. Eng. of Electrical at McGill University in 2009, with main concentrations in telecommunication and Automation & Control. Under the supervision of Dr. Tal Arbel at Center for Intelligent Machines (CIM), Yiming finished his undergraduate honor thesis on the topic of MRI image normalization methods for patients with Multiple-Sclerosis. In 2011, Yiming Xiao completed his Master's degree in Biomedical Engineering under the supervision of Dr. Louis Collins, at Montreal Neurological Institute, McGill University. In 2016, he finished his Ph.D. studies under the supervision of Dr. Louis Collins, at the Neuro Imaging & Surgical Technologies Lab (NIST), on the topic of image-guided neurosurgery and medical imaging analysis. Between 2016 and 2017, he joined the PERFORM Centre, Concordia University as a postdoctoral associate with Dr. Hassan Rivaz. Currently, he is a BrainsCAN postdoctoral researcher under the supervision of Drs. Terry Peters and Ali Khan, at the Robarts Research Institute, Western University.
