EducationBorn in Beijing, China, Tjan moved from Hong Kong to the United States as a teenager.[3] He received his bachelor's degree in computer science from the University of Kansas in 1987 and his Ph.D. in computer and information science from the University of Minnesota in 1997. His PhD thesis was entitled "Ideal Observer Analysis of Object Recognition".[4][5] CareerFrom 1990 to 1996, Tjan worked as a research assistant at the University of Minnesota. He joined the University of Southern California (USC) as an assistant professor in the psychology department in 2001. He was promoted to associate professor there in 2008 and to full professor in 2015.[4] At USC, he co-founded the Dornsife Cognitive Neuroscience Imaging Center, and served as its co-director at the time of his death.[6] He directed the Laboratory for Functional and Computational Vision at USC.[7] He also served in the Research Grants Council of Hong Kong from 2008-2014.[4] Research interestsTjan was known for researching the responses people have to vision loss caused by multiple conditions, such as macular degeneration.[2][8] A page on the USC website stated that his research objective was to study the "human visual system to address basic and translational questions pertaining to vision loss, restoration, and rehabilitation.”[9] DeathOn December 2, 2016, Tjan was fatally stabbed by a USC student; soon afterward, one of his graduate students was arrested on suspicion of having carried out the stabbing.[10][11] His body was found inside the Seeley G. Mudd Building, where he worked,[12] after which he was pronounced dead.[2] Tjan was 50 years old.[11] Authorities reportedly believe a student killed Tjan as the result of a personal dispute, but police have not yet established a motive.[13][14][15] References1. ^{{cite web|last=Bell |first=Susan |url=http://news.usc.edu/113582/in-memoriam-bosco-tjan-50/ |title=In memoriam: Bosco Tjan, 50 | USC News |website=News.usc.edu |date= |accessdate=2017-01-12}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-usc-professor-killed-bosco-tjan-20161203-story.html|title=Slain USC professor Bosco Tjan was an expert in vision loss research|last=Winton|first=Richard|date=2016-12-03|website=Los Angeles Times}} 3. ^{{Cite news |url=http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-bosco-tjan-killing-20161203-story.html|title='Life is not going to be the same': Slaying of beloved USC professor leaves colleagues and friends crestfallen|last=Queally|first=James|newspaper=Los Angeles Times |publication-date=2016-12-03}} 4. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://dornsife.usc.edu/tools/mytools/PersonnelInfoSystem/DOC/Faculty/PSYC/vita_1003767.pdf|title=Bosco Siaufung Tjan CV|website=Dornsife.usc.edu|accessdate=2017-01-12}} 5. ^{{cite news|url=https://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=266745|title=Ideal observer analysis of object recognition|first=Bosco Siautung|last=Tjan|date=1997|accessdate=December 3, 2016|publisher=Association for Computing Machinery}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://ibt.usc.edu/research-faculty/bosco-tjan-phd|title=Bosco Tjan|website=Institute for Biomedical Therapeutics|publisher=University of Southern California Keck School of Medicine|accessdate=December 3, 2016}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=https://tlab.usc.edu/dokuwiki/doku.php|title=The Laboratory for Functional and Computational Vision|publisher=University of Southern California|accessdate=December 3, 2016}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=https://consumer.healthday.com/general-health-information-16/biology-and-anatomy-news-24/eye-study-results-may-offer-new-therapy-for-some-vision-loss-679171.html|title=Eye Study Results May Offer New Therapy for Some Vision Loss|last=Preidt|first=Robert|website=Healthday|date=2013-08-15}} 9. ^{{cite web|url=http://ktla.com/2016/12/03/slain-usc-professor-bosco-tjan-was-an-expert-in-vision-loss-research|title=Slain USC Professor Bosco Tjan Was an Expert in Vision Loss Research|last=Martin|first=Erika|website=KTLA5 |date=2016-12-03}} 10. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.cnn.com/2016/12/03/us/california-usc-professor-stabbing|title=Student fatally stabs University of Southern California professor, police say|last=Ansari|first=Azadeh|website=CNN|publicationdate=2016-12-03}} 11. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.nydailynews.com/news/crime/student-killed-usc-prof-bosco-tjan-leave-school-article-1.2897424|title=Graduate student who fatally stabbed his mentor, USC professor Bosco Tjan, had just taken leave of absence for personal reasons|last=Associated Press|website=New York Daily News|date=2016-12-03}} 12. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2016/12/03/southern-california-professor-stabbed-death-student|title=Student Fatally Stabs Professor|last=Jaschik|first=Scott|website=Inside Higher Education|date=2016-12-03}} 13. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-bosco-tjan-memorial-20161205-story.html|title=Slain USC professor Bosco Tjan recalled for his generosity, empathy, humor and love|first=Rosanna|last=Xia|publisher=LA Times}} 14. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2016/12/03/usc-fatal-stabbing-professor-student-suspect/94872710|title=Student suspect arrested in fatal stabbing of USC professor|last=Ventura|first=Charles|website=USA Today |date=2016-12-03}} 15. ^{{cite news|url=http://time.com/4589661/university-of-southern-california-professor-stabbing|title=University of Southern California Professor Fatally Stabbed by Student|last=Reilly|first=Katie|website=Time|publicationdate=2016-12-03}} External links
