Advancing Research in Cardiovascular Health

Innovation at the intersection of cardiothoracic surgery and machine learning.

About Us

Complex diseases require multidisciplinary solutions.

Hospitals worldwide generate millions of medical records that are processed and interpreted by medical experts everyday. From recorded surgeries and annotated medical records, to pathology reports and genomic data, they sit on vast troves of data primed for medical research and innovation.

By bringing together approaches from engineering and clinical medicine, we aim to leverage recent advances in natural language processing, computer vision, biomechanics, and transcriptomics to translate research from the workbench to the patient's bedside.

Our Work

A code-first approach to state-of-the-art research.

We aspire to make discoveries with impact. From modeling myocardial infarctions to synthesizing therapeutic proteins for failing hearts, our goal is to understand and treat cardiovascular disease. Core to our approach is sharing research and tools to fuel progress in the field. Our researchers regularly publish in academic journals and release projects as open source.

Our Resources

Going big for a bigger impact.

Our lab has access to some of the largest medical datasets and computational resources.
