About this Class

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly ubiquitous in biomedical research, enabled by large datasets, new algorithms, and hardware improvements. In this 30-minute talk and Q and A session, Dr. Brian Ondov will introduce the basic principles of AI and describe how its various forms can help researchers in different ways, including image classification, sequence-based prediction, generative models, and language understanding.

Dr. Ondov is a postdoctoral fellow at the National Library of Medicine, where he researches AI for consumer health communication, and faculty at FAES, where he teaches Applied Machine Learning (BIOF 509) and Advanced Applications of Artificial Intelligence (BIOF 510).

The Foundation for Advanced Education in the Sciences (FAES) at NIH seeks to foster education and research in the biomedical sciences by providing instruction at the cutting edge of biological science and its evolving applications. Our goals also include responding to the educational and cultural needs of the NIH community and projecting FAES educational assets globally. All courses and workshops are open to the public. NOTICE OF NONDISCRIMINATORY POLICY AS TO STUDENTS FAES admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin, sex, disability, or age in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship programs, and other school-administered programs.
