Bio:

Eugene Agichtein founded and leads the Emory Intelligent Information Access Laboratory (IR Lab): http://ir.cs.emory.edu/. The IR Lab works on many aspects of information retrieval, including modeling user behavior and interactions in web search and online social communities, conversational search and question answering, large-scale text mining and information extraction, and on applications of these techniques to medical informatics. Eugene collaborates closely with researchers in Psychology, Neuroscience, and Biomedical Informatics at Emory, and with colleagues at industry research labs. Dr. Agichtein and colleagues have produced an influential body of work resulting in 7 U.S. Patents and more than 120 publications, which so far received 4 best paper awards and 2 test-of-time awards. (Over 10,000 citations, h-index=42 according to Google Scholar: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=3BX3vWcAAAAJ ).
