I am a fourth year CS Ph.D. student at Georgia Tech, advised by Judy Hoffman. My research interests are in developing data-efficient and reliable computer vision systems that can be deployed in the real world. Specifically, I am interested in sample-efficient learning (particularly few-shot and active learning), adaptation across visual tasks and domains, and reliable and calibrated uncertainty estimation from deep neural networks.

Lucy Lu Wang (Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence (AI2))
Ilya Valmianski (Kaiser Permanente)

I am a Physicist turned Machine Learning Scientist. My current work is focused on developing deep learning models for natural language processing of free text in Electronic Health Records (EHR). Clinical notes present a special challenge for NLP as they often contain many idiosyncratic abbreviations, technical terms, and incomplete sentence structure. This makes it very hard to process using classical techniques. At KP, we have one of the largest in the world EHR clinical note corpora, which allows us to leverage Deep Learning techniques and achieve state of the art performance on auditing and clinical decision support tasks.

Marie Charpignon (MIT)

Marie grew up in Burgundy, France and studied engineering in Paris. She moved to the US to study Computational and Mathematical Engineering at Stanford University for her master’s (’16). She is passionate about statistics for education and healthcare. After graduation, she joined Microsoft as a data scientist focusing on education technology. There, she built models to better understand online collaboration, studied the impact of technology usage at school and organized workshops for high school girls. She is currently a second-year graduate student in the MIT PhD program in Social & Engineering Systems. Her work on causal inference for drug repurposing using Electronic Health Records combines mathematical modelling, data analysis and policy.

Niklas Rindtorff (Harvard Medical School, DKFZ Heidelberg)

Niklas Rindtorff, MBI, is a joint MD/PhD student at the Max Planck Institute for Medical Research and the German Cancer Research Center, Heidelberg. Here he combines high-throughput drug testing, image analysis and patient derived organoids to study treatment responses of heterogenous cancer models ex-vivo. His prior research at the Broad Institute, the German Cancer Research Center and the ETH Zurich is focused on improving treatment recommendations in precision oncology based on uncertainty-aware predictive algorithms, functional drug testing of patient derived cancer samples, allele-specific genome editing and microscopy image analysis. As a Fulbright scholar, he received a masters degree in biomedical informatics from Harvard Medical School in 2019. The title of his thesis under Jesse Boehm at the Broad Institute was: "Living Biosensors: Predicting Drug Vulnerabilities from Living Tumor Samples by Single-Cell, Label-free imaging. Niklas is a member of the MIT Critical Data initiative and regularly co-organizes Healthcare Datathon events across Europe. Having led a student-run retail company during medical school, he plans to work at the intersection of the digital health and pharmaceutical industry after completion of his clinical training.

I am a Visiting Scientist at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, where I am designing methods to improve the predictive power of polygenic risk scores to help clinicians identify patients at serious risk for cardiovascular disease. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from University of Notre Dame, IN. My doctoral thesis focused on designing cloud computing-based infrastructures to expedite analysis and learning-based algorithms to improve quality of large-scale genomic data. Prior to joining IBM Research, I worked at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard on comparative genomics to control Zika outbreak. During my internship at IBM Watson, I built automated tools to optimize cloud-based resource allocation for SoftLayer Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and deploy Watson applications (Watson Oncology and Watson Engagement Advisor) on the cloud.
