Can AI help predict which heart-failure patients will worsen within a year?

Characterized by weakened or damaged heart musculature, heart failure results in the gradual buildup of fluid in a patient’s lungs, legs, feet, and other parts of the body. The condition is chronic and incurable, often leading to arrhythmias or sudden cardiac arrest. For many centuries, bloodletting and leeches were the treatment of choice, famously practiced

3 Questions: Building predictive models to characterize tumor progression

Just as Darwin’s finches evolved in response to natural selection in order to endure, the cells that make up a cancerous tumor similarly counter selective pressures in order to survive, evolve, and spread. Tumors are, in fact, complex sets of cells with their own unique structure and ability to change. Today, artificial Intelligence and machine learning

How Joseph Paradiso’s sensing innovations bridge the arts, medicine, and ecology

Joseph Paradiso thinks that the most engaging research questions usually span disciplines. Paradiso was trained as a physicist and completed his PhD in experimental high-energy physics at MIT in 1981. His father was a photographer and filmmaker working at MIT, MIT Lincoln Laboratory, and the MITRE Corporation, so he grew up in a house where artists, scientists,

AI to help researchers see the bigger picture in cell biology

Studying gene expression in a cancer patient’s cells can help clinical biologists understand the cancer’s origin and predict the success of different treatments. But cells are complex and contain many layers, so how the biologist conducts measurements affects which data they can obtain. For instance, measuring proteins in a cell could yield different information about the

How AI is Reducing Emergency Room Overcrowding

Emergency room overcrowding has become one of healthcare’s most pressing challenges, putting countless lives at risk through delayed care and strained resources. The scale of this crisis is stark: over 1.5 million patients experienced wait times exceeding 12 hours in major emergency departments in 2023, with 65% of these cases involving patients awaiting admission. Among
