Our laboratory is deeply integrated in the innovative research and teaching carried out by the Department of Medicine’s Section for Quantitative Health. We use AI as a vehicle to integrate cutting-edge image science, spatial biology, clinical science, basic research, and engineering. Our AI faculty members also participate in graduate biomedical and medical programs. As part of this effort, Dr. Sarder is seeking motivated trainees or students to join his research group and focus on our novel research direction.
