Eric and Wendy Schmidt Center

Eric and Wendy Schmidt Center is enabling a new field of interdisciplinary research at the intersection of the data and life sciences, aimed at improving human health. Our researchers and partners work together to make the biological questions of our time key drivers for foundational advances in machine learning — and vice versa.

The Center brings together a global network of scientists from academia and industry to promote interdisciplinary research between the data and life sciences to transform biology and ultimately improve human health.

It includes collaborators from across the ӳ��ý community, including MIT, Harvard, and Harvard teaching hospitals. It also partners with the pioneering work already underway at ӳ��ý, such as the Models, Inference & Algorithms (MIA) Initiative at the ӳ��ý and the cross-institutional Machine Learning for Health (ML4H) effort.

The Center is directed by Caroline Uhler, who is a core institute member of the ӳ��ý and a full professor of electrical engineering and computer science and faculty of the Institute for Data, Systems, and Society at MIT.
