AI Precision Health Institute
Shepherd Research Lab (SRL) is a research group led by Dr. John A. Shepherd at the University of Hawai‘i Cancer Center, focused on developing novel imaging biomarkers for cancer and metabolic disease risk detection. Their work bridges computational imaging science and cancer research, including breast cancer detection using breast density and tissue texture, body composition analysis for metabolic health prediction, and AI-assisted diagnosis through deep learning. SRL operates as a translational catalyst, conducting active human studies and technology development projects, with a strong emphasis on benefiting the local community in O‘ahu. They provide lab services in body composition, exercise physiology, and energy metabolism, and collaborate with various partners and companies for funding and research support.
