Engineering University of Washington
Abstract: In the first part of the talk, I will go over a number of research work done by my lab on the topics of explainable AI applied to biomedical problems, which exemplifies how it addresses new scientific questions, make new biological discoveries from data, make informed clinical decisions, and even open new research directions in biomedicine.
In the second part of the talk, I will show you that explainable AI needs to evolve and improve to solve real-world problems in computational biology and medicine by having a deep dive into our cancer pharmacogenomics project led by our Ph.D. student Joseph Janizek in collaboration with Prof. Kamila Naxerova at Harvard Medical School.
