Dr. Bo Fu is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Engineering and Computer Science at California State University Long Beach (CSULB), California, USA. Dr. Fu received her B.Sc. (Joint Hons.), M.Sc., and Ph.D. in Computer Science from Trinity College Dublin, Ireland. Prior to  joining  CSULB, Dr. Fu was a Research Scientist at the National Center for Biomedical Ontology, and a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Victoria, Canada.

Dr. Fu's  research intersects Web Semantics and Human Data Interaction. She is interested  in

accelerating research and innovation in semantic-oriented intelligent systems and interactive visual analytics that facilitate human decision-making. Through semantics and interaction, the overall  goal of her research is to help people make sense of complex datasets during the process of turning data to information, to knowledge,  and to wisdom in collective intelligence. Dr. Fu has published her research at premier journals and conferences including the Semantic Web Journal, the Journal of Web Semantics, the International Semantic Web Conference, and the Extended Semantic Web Conference. She has chaired and reviewed numerous scientific panels and committees, such as National Science Foundation programs, Big Data Research, Artificial Intelligence in Medicine, and BMC Bioinformatics.
