A pleasure to talk to Oliver Morgan, head of the @who.int pandemic hub. We discuss #AI in public health, broadly, and focus on @beaconbio.bsky.social run by @buceid.bsky.social in partnership with @buhaririinstitute.bsky.social and @bostonchildrens.bsky.social (see tinyurl.com/bdfhwtuf).

For a 4th year, our work is at the top 10 @bostonu.bsky.social research stories (tinyurl.com/3eebxjju). This year for @beaconbio.bsky.social led by @bhadeliamd.bsky.social, run by @buceid.bsky.social, in collaboration with @buhaririinstitute.bsky.social and a @bostonchildrens.bsky.social team.

At the IEEE CDC ‘25 with Dimos Dimarogonas during the first plenary.

Excited to be part of this panel!

🎀 October is #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth. Join us Oct. 29 for our research symposium convening experts in #AI, imaging, medicine & public health who will share advances in AI-driven early detection and equitable care. ➡️ Learn more & register: tinyurl.com/5xkpdkjm #BreastCancerResearch

A pleasure to present our work on @beaconbio.bsky.social at the @who.int Global Pandemic Hub and participate in a lively discussion. Happy 4th yr anniversary to the Hub.

Great to see @wbur.org reporting of our work in @beaconbio.bsky.social, supported by an #AI pipeline (based on a domain-adapted LLM) developed by our team at @buhaririinstitute.bsky.social

For those attending IEEE CDC 2025 in Rio de Janeiro, please make sure you take advantage of the early registration option. Now is also the time to register for the pre-conference workshops (out of 19 choices!) See cdc2025.ieeecss.org for all relevant information.

Continuing on our AI work for #Alzheimer's, in a paper just published we show how a trail making drawing test processed by AI can assess cognitive decline (tinyurl.com/2pkn2kp2). Joint with the Framingham Heart Study and students @buhaririinstitute.bsky.social and @bostonu.bsky.social

We’re proud to introduce our @bostonu.bsky.social Hariri Institute 2025 Fellows + 2026 FRP awardees! An inspiring group of researchers pushing interdisciplinary boundaries in computing, AI & data science at @BU_Computing 🔗 http://spr.ly/6332646KKe

At the BEACON launch, co-director @ypaschalidis.bsky.social describes the LLM process for scoring and weighting the severity of infectious disease signals received by BEACON. @buhaririinstitute.bsky.social http://spr.ly/63320NQ4w4

Congrats to my lab’s graduates Boran Hao and Samad Amini for receiving the @bostonu.bsky.social Electrical Engineering outstanding dissertation award and the Engineering PhD societal impact award, respectively. Very proud for them!

@bostonu.bsky.social Launches an Open-Source Infectious Diseases Monitoring Tool Powered by AI and Human Experts tinyurl.com/kyzezbku @buhaririinstitute.bsky.social is proud to partner with @buceid.bsky.social and @bostonchildrens.bsky.social bringing #AI into infectious disease reporting.

Are you ready? We are launching the beta version of @beaconbio.bsky.social tomorrow! But you can stay tuned here & give @beaconbio.bsky.social a follow for more detail coming out later today and a chance to check out this new open source outbreak reporting platform!

Should we embrace Generative AI in research? Hariri Institute experts say yes! Our Director @ypaschalidis.bsky.social discusses how AI is advancing scientific discovery, enhancing education, and raising critical questions about misinformation and privacy. Read more here: spr.ly/601407NC6

Exciting news! Boston University officially launched its Artificial Intelligence Development Accelerator (AIDA). Our Director Yannis Paschalidis and Hariri Faculty Affiliate John Byers will serve as the AIDA Co-Directors of AI in Academics. Read more about this incredible initiative in BU Today.

Systems & Control scientists, dot your i's and cross your t's. Final stretch for getting your papers in before the 2025 IEEE CDC (cdc2025.ieeecss.org) submission deadline on Monday March 31.

Join our official launch celebration on April 24th, where we will bring together renowned leaders to share the global health importance of this new platform. @buceid.bsky.social @buhaririinstitute.bsky.social @bostonchildrens.bsky.social @bostonu.bsky.social www.eventbrite.com/e/advances-i...

As we reach five years since the start of the #COVID19 pandemic, CEID faculty @bhadeliamd.bsky.social, @ypaschalidis.bsky.social, Brooke Nichols, & Kayoko Shioda speak to The Brink about the current state of pandemic preparedness in the US. www.bu.edu/articles/202...

We had the pleasure of hosting @bostonu.bsky.social President Dr. Melissa Gilliam, MD, to discuss our mission of enabling convergent, multidisciplinary research, and infusing our Computing & AI expertise to many research domains across our Charles River and Medical campuses.

Can we predict who is more likely to have poorly controlled hypertension simply using socio-demographic factors? Find out at our new paper rdcu.be/d8wg1, a collaboration of @bostonu.bsky.social , Boston Medical Center, and Mass General Brigham.

The NIH National Institute on Aging highlights our recent work on predicting progression from mild cognitive impairment to #Alzheimer's tinyurl.com/ykke4ckf Joint work of our lab with Rhoda Au and the Framingham Heart Study team.

What an honor to be included in this select group of the IEEE Control Systems Society!

Delighted to see our recent work on predicting #Alzheimer's disease (tinyurl.com/5jkyekd8) to make it to the top 10 most read stories by The Brink (it is #3 at tinyurl.com/yaxptawz), @bostonu.bsky.social's research news outlet.

Accurate #WeatherForecast-ing is vital for agriculture, maritime activities, natural disaster mitigation, emergency response, and much more. We need a similar paradigm for ecological forecasting. In www.nature.com/articles/s41... we make the case.
