SUMMARY:SOLUTIONS with/in/sight: Algorithm and Views
DESCRIPTION:Two teams of KI investigators share their innovations using machine learning tools to improve lung cancer detection. Coupling machine learning algorithms with responsive nanoparticles\, KI alum Ava Amini and Jesse Kirkpatrick of the Bhatia Lab develop noninvasive diagnostics to classify tumor types and inform patient interventions. They are joined by KI computer scientist Regina Barzilay and oncologist Lecia Sequist who will discuss how they use algorithms to look deeper into radiology images to predict future cancer risk. Through these projects\, the researchers present their vision for smarter decision-making and better care for patients. The program concludes with a dessert reception in the Koch Institute Public Galleries.

SUMMARY:Closing the Health Equity Gap: Pathways to Workforce Development
DESCRIPTION:KPMG is delighted to announce the creation of a series designed to take action to close crucial gaps in health equity in the New England region. \nOur first forum will examine the opportunity we must collectively seize to enhance health equity through workforce diversification as the healthcare and life sciences industries are expected to add nearly 100\,000 jobs in the region by 2024. \nFor this first session of the series\, join a working consortium of corporate accelerators\, government and community health advisors\, healthcare and life science executives\, and academic leaders during a one-day forum on health equity. \nWe will discuss health equity challenges\, examine barriers to progress\, explore tactics that are improving health equity\, and discuss solutions and methods for accelerating and scaling enhancements in access to quality care. We aim to identify concrete actions that can be taken to start pulling discrete efforts together from across the New England ecosystem to make progress on critical agenda items. \nSenior executives from leading organizations in the greater Boston area will be featured to facilitate dialogue and discussion and convey their thinking\, including Vertex\, MassBio\, MassMEDIC\, Boston Medical Center\, KPMG\, Roxbury Worx\, Massachusetts League of Community Health Centers\, Massachusetts Life Sciences Center\, and more. \nThis will be unlike other events in which you have participated. Prepare to join a continuing working group on Workforce\, Philanthropies & Funding\, or Optimization of Clinical Trials. All designed to take action\, together\, for better and more rapid outcomes. Details will be provided leading up to and during the forum. \nIn collaboration with Massachusetts League of Community Health Centers\, Boston Medical Center\, and the Massachusetts Life Sciences Center. \nSupported by The American City Coalition\, MassBio\, and MassMedic.

SUMMARY:Predicting Mosquito-Borne Disease Transmission in a Rapidly Changing World
DESCRIPTION:From climate change to land use\, anthropogenic alterations to the environment are occurring at unprecedented rates and on an unthinkable scale. These developments alter the built landscape and our access to life-sustaining resources. \nBut they also disrupt the ecological relationships that bind together humans\, mosquitoes\, and parasites. Upsetting these relationships results in changes to the distribution of host organisms\, rates of contact\, the spread of infectious diseases\, and the seasonality of transmission risk. \nDisease ecologist Courtney Murdock will explore the climate variables that influence mosquito-borne disease transmission. Deploying advanced models of climate-based disease spread\, Murdock’s research seeks to predict transmission patterns in order to respond to the epidemiological effects of the climate crisis.

SUMMARY:RNA Leaders USA
DESCRIPTION:LSX are known for bringing life science investors together to assess and meet with the most promising up-and-coming biotech companies. When the first mRNA vaccines hit the market in 2020\, one of our investors asked us to look at the resurgence of therapeutics targeting or made of RNA with the view to developing a high-level conference. And so\, RNA Leaders was born. \nThe 2022 RNA Leaders Series saw 100+ world-class speakers and over 600+ senior leaders from around the world join the most comprehensive and only RNA industry-focused events in Europe (Basel) in the spring and the US (Boston) in the fall. \nThe community came together to hear the latest advances in RNA chemistry\, get clinical updates from the companies developing new therapies\, source the services partners who are helping to deliver drugs to patients and develop their network with over 750+ partnering meetings! \nThe explosion of the RNA field continues\, and RNA medicines are at a critical moment in time. At first in wake of the pandemic mRNA vaccines dominated the headlines\, although this is still the case mRNA therapeutics and vaccines to treat other infectious diseases and therapeutics like cancer are also taking centre stage. \nHuge advances are also being made in RNAi and antisense technologies as our understanding of the chemistry evolves and AI platform progress discovery. Delivery tools are increasingly sophisticated and impactful. Advances in genomics and gene editing are driving new approaches. And exciting work targeting RNA with small molecules and non-linear RNAs are emerging. \nWith that in mind\, we can’t wait to bring the community together\, face-to-face\, in the fall 2023 for the second annual RNA Leaders USA Congress. \nAnd in the words of Moderna’s CSO\, Melissa Moore\, “when I saw some other speakers who had been invited\, I felt this would be a really great place to connect with and network with my peers”. \nSo\, if you’re passionate about all things RNA please join us\, and more than 500 biotech\, pharmaceutical\, investment\, regulatory and scientific professionals at the RNA Leaders USA Congress in September 2023.
