Science & Technology

WashU’s AI Perspectives Week will feature about 40 events, showcasing faculty, students and leading thinkers on artificial intelligence. The series highlights research, teaching, ethics and community dialogue, while welcoming both enthusiasts and skeptics.

With a grant from the National Science Foundation, WashU computer engineer Shantanu Chakrabartty will design hybrid neuromorphic and quantum computing systems that could unlock huge energy efficiencies in solving artificial intelligence problems.

WashU researchers are working on ways to use machine learning to not just make predictions about potential chemical compounds but also to model out the synthesis of those materials.

With a CAREER Award from the National Science Foundation, WashU’s Umar Iqbal proposes to redesign the web with infrastructures that will allow AI agents to reliably use it.

Advances in medical imaging and artificial intelligence have revolutionized many aspects of medical practice, but it can be hard to know if a given measurement tool works as intended. A technique developed by WashU researchers can be used to assess the reliability of quantitative imaging tools.

Thomas Kannampallil, a professor of anesthesiology at WashU Medicine, is recognized for his expertise in AI-based technology designed to improve healthcare.

As the fall semester approaches, WashU’s AI initiative is driving academic innovation across schools and disciplines.

An AI-enabled software tool developed by WashU Medicine researchers is the first device to predict malignant cerebral edema, a dangerous complication of acute stroke.

C-BRAIN, the consortium co-founded by WashU Medicine and directed by neurologist Randall J. Bateman, MD, brings together members from academia, major pharmaceutical companies and philanthropic organizations.

WashU Medicine and BJC doctors can now focus less on note-taking and more on interacting with patients with the aid of an AI transcriber.
