Impromptu "lab" meeting at ENAR 2026 with former lab member Nick Seewald, future lab member Young Cho, and former lab member Tianchen Qian!!!

It was a joy to speak in a session with colleagues Rui Miao, Lu Wang and Wei Jin! And thanks to Lingxuan Kong for chairing our session!

Congratulations to Susobhan Ghosh (@susobhang70), who has just accepted Amazon’s offer to join its Worldwide Promotions and Deals team as an applied scientist!

Congratulations to undergrad @BetinaKreiman, who has been accepted to the Kempner Institute’s 2026 KRANIUM program to do summer research with my lab! We look forward to working with you, Betina!

It was great exchanging ideas on the future of AI in health with early-career Google PMs. Thanks for visiting us!

I’m looking forward to my talk “Reinforcement Learning in the Dyadic Setting,” on work with @ZipingXu0221, in tomorrow's #ENAR2026 session on recent advances in personalized decision-making!

Interested in using AI for your mobile health intervention but not sure which algorithm, variables, hyperparameters, etc. to use for deployment (e.g., in a clinical trial)? Check out our latest paper on "JITAI-Twins" to learn more! doi.org/10.2196/72830

Congratulations to Anvit Garg, Hans Gaebler and Souhardya Sengupta for being selected and delivering Lightning Talks in the Harvard Statistics Admitted PhD Students Visiting Program!

Check out Nicolas Leenaerts' Open Science preregistration, osf.io/6wpu4/overview, of his planned Off-Policy RL for optimizing JITAIs for people who are overweight or obese! Go Nicolas!

A nice photo of postdoc Nicolas Leenaerts presenting at the MAPCI Training institute at @d3_center!

I am really enjoying participating in the MAPCI training institute hosted by @d3_center!!

So very happy to visit Yale Biostatistics and visit with my wonderful colleague Heping Zhang!

I am looking forward to my talk tomorrow on RL for digital health interventions in the dyadic setting (joint work with @ZipingXu0221) at @YaleSPH!

Congratulations to postdoc @ajksunke, who has just left the lab to take up a new postdoctoral position at the University of Pennsylvania with Professors Long and Su. We will miss you, Ke!
