Baojun Li received his Ph.D. from The University of Iowa in 2004 (Advisors: Prof. Joe Reinhardt, Prof. Gary Christensen). His dissertation was on 3D Nonlinear Image Registration and Warping of Pulmonary CT for Lung Atlas and Radiation Treatment Planning. From 2002 to 2009, he worked as a Senior Scientist at GE Healthcare's Applied Science Lab, where he was awarded multiple GE Management Awards for his contributions to the development of Radiographic Tomosynthesis, Low-dose CT (aka. ASiR), and Dual-energy CT (aka. Gem Stone Imaging). Baojun currently serves as a Senior Associate Editor for for Medical Physics Journal, and a manuscript reviewer for IEEE TMI, IEEE TBE, European Radiology, American Journal of Roentgenology, Academic Radiology, etc. He has served on several national committees of American Association of Physicists in Medicine, Radiological Society of North America, and American Board of Radiology, and is the liaison between AAPM and the Society of Cardiac CT. Baojun was elected a Fellow of American Association of Physicists in Medicine in 2022. Baojun has authored more than 100 publications and 23 issued patents. He is a frequent lecturer nationally on CT technology.

Baojun Li is board certified by American Board of Radiology (Specialty: Diagnostic Medical Physics) since 2013.

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility

Given that medical physics and diagnostic radiology are traditionally male-dominated specialties, I have been committed to diversity, equity and inclusion for my entire career. Over the past 18 years, I have mentored numerous women and traditionally underrepresented groups in medical physics and diagnostic radiology as a means to diversify the fields. I have also had the privilege to sponsor many for leadership positions given my roles in national professional organizations. My teaching has also provided other venues by which I am able to promote DEI activities. Finally, it is an honor to serve the patient population at Boston University Medical Center—by ensuring patient safety and equipment efficacy daily.
