Glad to see our research being used in a U.S. Supreme Court filing inย U.S. Food and Drug Administration v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine. ๐Ÿ‘‡ @HarvardBizGov

Research from the @PIASLab is cited in @USSupremeCourt brief in @US_FDA v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine. The filing references work by @Soroush_Saghaf et al. (2022) on hospital closures and health system capacity. reproductiverights.org/wp-content/uplโ€ฆ Paper: link.springer.com/article/10.100โ€ฆ

Grateful for this interview on the use of #AI in #healthcare. As I mentioned to the reporter (Jessica Craig), the โ€œhowโ€ in building effective AI tools that can impact practice is important. Many tools reaching practice โ€œare not effective;โ€ thus, the need for stronger evaluation, governance, and accountability. Check out the piece ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡

AI is moving quickly in health care, but regulation and evidence often lag behind. In a new piece, @Soroush_Saghaf highlights a key challenge: Teaching models to understand causationโ€”not just correlationโ€”within electronic health record data. san.com/cc/move-fast-aโ€ฆ

Emotional goodbye to my students! Grateful for all the enthusiastic effort they put in learning! It has been truly amazing offering a course on Machine Learning and Big Data Analytics, where a large number of motivated and talented individuals from different parts of campus (and some nearby universities) gather to learn how they can improve the world and have an impact! My last piece of advice to them: โ€œNEVER graduate from being a studentโ€!
