Saltz is Professor and Chair of the Department of Biomedical Informatics, Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at The Ohio State University (OSU), Davis Endowed Chair of Cancer at OSU, and a Senior Fellow of the Ohio Supercomputer Center. Prior to coming to Ohio State, Dr. Saltz was Professor of Pathology and Informatics in the Department of Pathology at Johns Hopkins Medical School and Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Maryland. Dr. Saltz is trained both as a Computer Scientist and as a medical scientist. He received his M.D.-Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science at Duke University. He completed a residency in Clinical Pathology at Johns Hopkins University and is a board certified Clinical Pathologist.

Research

Project Involvement

Imaging Informatics

Medical Informatics

Multiscale Computing

Over the past decade, Dr. Joel Saltz has developed a rich set of middleware optimization and runtime compilation methods that target irregular, adaptive, and multi-resolution applications. He was the originator of the inspector-executor compilation framework and has extended this framework to handle a wide variety of computationally intensive applications as well as to the optimization of queries that target disk-based multi-resolution datasets. This work has encompassed a wide variety of architectural platforms, ranging from high-end multiprocessors to clusters to distributed grid environments. Dr. Saltz is also heavily involved in the development of ambitious biomedical applications for high-end computers, very large-scale storage systems, and grid environments. He has played a pioneering role in the developing of Pathology virtual slide technology and has made major contributions to informatics applications that support point-of-care testing.

Dr. Saltz is the PI and director of the NIH-funded Center for Grid-Enabled Medical Image Analysis, plays a leadership role in the development of the core NCI caBIG grid architecture, is a project leader in the NCI-funded Center on Integrative Medicine, leads the Ohio State Comprehensive Cancer Center Biomedical Informatics core, and is the PI on numerous NSF and DOE projects. He also leads a state-funded public/private consortium that develops biomedical informatics grid technology. Dr. Saltz has an extensive funding history with DARPA, NASA, and the DOD, in high-end computing and biomedical computing projects.
