TODAY: seminar at 3:30 pm in E25-117 by Dr. William Jacobs on "Immune-mediated Killing and Sterilization of Mycobacteria Tuberculosis" Learn more about research on global health crisis of tuberculosis! @EinsteinMed @MIT_IMES @mit_hst @MITMechE @MITEngineering @FluidsAndHealth

[MIT School of Engineering @MITEngineering]

A team led by Leo Anthony Celi, a senior research scientist at @MIT_IMES, created a framework that they say can guide AI developers in designing systems that display curiosity and humility.

Science is Curiosity on a Mission: It includes all of us who ask "why" and make it our mission to find out. These are the discoveries that move the country forward. The pursuit of ideas that seemed impossible until they weren’t. #CuriosityOnAMission

Where would the field of clinical AI be without PhysioNet? 🎂 This year marks the 25th anniversary of one of the most comprehensive clinical data repositories in existence, best known for hosting datasets like MIMIC and the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database. https://t.co/YKhLL7uGj6

✨🫀Thanks to genAI, we can create realistic, digital organs for virtual clinical trials. But looking realistic is easy — behaving realistically remains a challenge. A new paper accepted to @iclr_conf from @aihealthmit researchers proposes a solution: https://t.co/VhfNBH0Cfh

[MIT School of Engineering @MITEngineering]

After researchers in @MITDeptofBE and @MIT_IMES tasked an AI system with designing new molecules for potential antibiotics from scratch, the algorithms generated more than 29 million new molecules, unlike any that existed before — within a couple of days.

Over 10,000 Americans are waiting for a liver transplant. MIT Engineers developed injectable “mini livers” that could take over the functions of a failing liver. The technology could offer an alternative to transplantation or provide support until a donor organ is available. https://t.co/RxSrNqD4b4
