Taking a closer look at survival modeling with ECGs

The Cava laboratory is a research group interested in improving the interpretability and fairness of predictive models deployed in healthcare settings. We create and study algorithms that can embed these notions when working with health data.
The lab is part of the Computational Health Informatics Program at Boston Children’s Hospital, affiliated with Harvard Medical School.
Join the Team! If you’re looking to do research in the areas of machine learning, interpretability, fairness, and health informatics, see the opportunities here.
