RC LIVE events focus on announcements, resources and information relevant to the research community. There is a very robust list of standing attendees who come each month to be available to the research community to help them answer questions and navigate obstacles. The meetings are open to all and an excellent resource – these are intended to be the forum for PIs to find the answers to many of their questions. Come each month to hear the latest news from community leaders and ask your questions.

Grad Students and Postdocs Contact Us (bwhbri@partners.org) to Get Your (only MGB employees) Registration Fee Covered.
Mass General Brigham will be co-hosting the AI Cures Conference with Massachusetts Institute of Technology on April 25, 2022, which will be focused on the translation and adoption of AI technologies for improving diagnostics, treatment, and long-term outcomes for diverse patient populations. The conference will help build new MIT-MGB collaborations and promote the clinical implementation of innovations that we believe will emerge.
We encourage researchers with potential collaborators at MIT to register and submit an abstract for the poster session (deadline April 5th). Posters can either highlight an ongoing collaboration with MIT or propose a new project seeking for cross-institutional collaborators.
To register, please visit the official conference site https://www.mitmgb.ai/. The conference will be held in-person at MIT’s Samberg Center.
Please register today, as there is limited seating capacity and we are expecting a strong presence from the MGB research community.
