Who is Sam Altman?
This radiotracer detects the 3/4R tauopathy in Alzheimer's Disease (hint: used part of Stanford ADRC). Include the radioisotope.
What is 18F-PI-2620?
This system produces fairly accurate protein structure prediction from amino acid sequences.
What is AlphaFold?
This technique reduces the number of features in a dataset while preserving as much variability as possible.
What is a PCA (Principal Component Analysis) used for?
This person was a Medical Image Analysis Scientist at GE before coming to Stanford.
Who is Mirabela Rusu?
GRU
What is a Gated Recurrent Unit?
This AI researcher and scientist at Google Brain is known for the popular deep learning framework, TensorFlow.
Who is Jeff Dean?

What is Adaptive Moment Estimator?
The person who invented both the ADAM optimizer and Variational Autoencoder.
Who is Durk Kingma?
What are the two main techniques to improve coincidence efficiency for PET?
What is geometric efficiency and intrinsic detection efficiency?
The equivalent radiograph plane to the cross-sectional anatomical plane that lies exactly at the midline and separates the body into left and right portions.
What is lateral?

Who is Johanna?
ELBO
What is Evidence Lower Bound?
This person coined the term Artificial Intelligence?
Who is John McCarthy, a Stanford professor? -- coined this term in 1955
This factor, often overlooked in SNR calculation in MR studies, should be accounted for since the variance is not the same between the background and signal regions!
What is Rayleigh distribution? (can also use non-background ROI w/ large and flat signal)
First FDA approved CRISPR–Cas9 gene editing therapy; it aims to cure sickle cell disease.
