Delighted to have @MonaJalal_ take on the leadership of this important program at @BU_Computing (bu.edu/hic/programs/data-sci…). Just this past year, the program mentored 50 @BU_Tweets students benefiting from 14 mentors who graciously contributed their time.
From mentee to leader! Thrilled to lead the Data Science Mentoring Circle at Boston University this year. We need: 🧑‍🏫 Mentors: BU Alumni 🎓 Mentees: Current BU graduate students Apply by 9/17 👇 bu.edu/hic/programs/data-sci… #BostonUniversity #DataScience #ai @BU_Computing @BU_Tweets

My lab is delighted to be part of this effort! Shows the power of #LLMs that can be taught many languages, including the "language" of #proteins.
What if better AI for drug discovery isn’t about bigger models? New @BU_Tweets research shows that AI designed around the biology of antibodies can outperform much larger models—offering a new approach to antibody discovery. spr.ly/6012B1P2Yn

BU SAIL won a $400K Alfred P. Sloan Foundation grant to advance an open-source initiative making generative AI more reproducible, secure, and accessible across higher education. Building on a successful pilot, the project now moves toward a scalable, community-driven platform. spr.ly/6016B6NJOp

A great honor, humbled. Grateful to my many students, colleagues, and collaborators who deserve most of the credit.
Huge congrats to our Director, Yannis Paschalidis, on his induction into the @AIMBE College of Fellows! 🎓 From federated learning to global disease surveillance, Yannis is bridging the gap between technical innovation and human health. spr.ly/6013B62rzc #BU #AI #Bioengineering #Innovation @busph @busystems @ecebostonu @BUexperts

It was a pleasure to talk to @OWMorgan, head of the @WHO Pandemic Hub. We discuss #AI in public health, broadly, and focus on @beacon_bio run by @BUCEID in partnership with @BU_Computing and @BostonChildrens. Our conversation and the full podcast are at tinyurl.com/bdfhwtuf.

A pleasure to present our work on @beacon_bio at the @WHO Global Pandemic Hub and participate in a lively discussion. Happy 4th yr anniversary to @OWMorgan and the entire team.
Interesting panel on Building LLMs & other AI tools for Public Health Intelligence at the #WHOPandemicHub in Berlin as a part of the speaker series As we get the fourth anniversary of the Hub, it’s fascinating to see the work that has come out of this rather unique effort!
