Bio

Stefano Marchesin is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Department of Information Engineering of the University of Padua. He took the Bachelor Degree in Information Engineering, the Master Degree in Computer Science Engineering, and the Ph.D. in Information Engineering. His research spans Neural Information Retrieval (NeuIR), Medical Information Retrieval (MedIR), Biomedical Relation Extraction (BioRE) and Entity Linking (BioEL).

From October 2017 to September 2020 he was a Ph.D. Student under the supervision of Prof. Maristella Agosti, working on Medical Information Extraction (MedIE) and MedIR for Clinical Decision Support (CDS). From January 2017 to September 2017, he was a Junior Researcher at University of Padua and member of the Information Management Systems (IMS) research group. From the 18th April 2017 to the 18th July 2017 he was a visiting researcher in the MedGIFT research group at the University of Applied Sciences Western Switzerland (HES-SO), under the supervision of Prof. Henning Mueller and Dr. Manfredo Atzori working on MedIE techniques to levarage the huge amount of relevant data contained within the PubMed archive for medical image classification. From the 14th August 2016 to the 14th November 2016 he was a visiting researcher in the ADAPT Centre at the Trinity College Dublin, under the supervision of Profs. Vincent Wade and Séamus Lawless working on User Modeling and Personalization methods for Cultural Heritage.
