MIT IMES

.@MIT_IMES pioneers research and education at the intersection of engineering, science and medicine to transform human health for all. @mit_hst empowers future clinician-scientists. @MIT #CuriousityOnAMission

We are looking for a Senior Lecturer/Director of Education! Responsibilities inc. overseeing @mit_hst academic affairs, educational policy+curriculum development. Help educate the next generation of clinician-scientists! Apply here: careers.peopleclick.com/careerscp/clie…

A new study published in @ScienceMagazine led by Alex Shalek, director of @MIT_IMES, shows how a key T cell protein called LAT keeps immune responses in balance. imes.mit.edu/news-events/sh…

We were pleased with the overwhelming response to the talk by Geoffrey Hinton (known as the godfather of AI) "Are we creating alien beings?" (@MIT_IMES )! The video is now available here: bit.ly/3S670PK To sign up for future lectures: bit.ly/3Sr8a8p

A team led by @MITChemE and @MIT_IMES Professor Daniel Anderson developed an implantable device that could offer long-term control of type 1 diabetes without the need for injections. news.mit.edu/2026/implantab…

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

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. news.mit.edu/2026/creating-…

We're thrilled that @geoffreyhinton will be delivering the @MIT_IMES Judith Richter Lecture! The "godfather of AI" will give a "brief and biased history of AI, in a talk called: "Are We Creating Alien Beings?" May 26, 3:30 pm, Building 32-123 @MITMechE @MITEngineering @MIT

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

Congrats to @AIHealthMIT PI Elazer @EdelmanLab for receiving the 2026-2027 Killian Award, @MIT's highest faculty honor! "He is a clinician of the highest order...a teacher of greatest passion...and an engineer whose work has reached around the globe." news.mit.edu/2026/elazer-ed…

A team, including researchers in @MITEECS and @MIT_IMES, developed a deep learning model that can predict which patients with heart failure are at risk of having their condition worsen up to a year in advance. news.mit.edu/2026/can-ai-he…

Reminder: TODAY is @MIT_IMES Founder's Lecture by Dr. Elias Zerhouni (former @NIH director): Review of the Past, Present and Potential Future of Biomedical Research. 3:30 pm, Building 3-270 @MIT reception to folo. Faculty host: Lydia Bourouiba @mit_hst @MITMechE @MITEngineering

I never could have made it this far without the army of people supporting me every step of the way. That includes my PIs Edward Bittner and Patrick Purdon, everyone in the @PurdonLab, and my supports at @mit_hst @MIT_IMES @harvardmed @HarvardMITmdphd @StanfordMed @stanfordanes

.@ellentroche has received 2 important honors: she was inducted into @aimbe College of Fellows; received @Sony mid-career award for exceptional researchers in technology. Congrats to Ellen! @mit_hst @MITMechE @MITEngineering @MIT bit.ly/4mB5YGC

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. jclinic.mit.edu/physionet-at-2…

✨🫀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: openreview.net/pdf?id=JyboUMe…

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. fastcompany.com/91451161/mit-d…
