SUMMARY:Clinical Trials: Patients as Research Partners
DESCRIPTION:In this Harvard Medical School special event\, Linnea Olson\, a patient advocate\, activist\, blogger and artist\, will share her remarkable journey as a participant in six phase I clinical trials for ALK-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) – three of which led to FDA approval of new targeted therapies. Linnea will be joined by two senior drug development leaders whose therapies have played such an important part in her story. Join us for a wide-ranging discussion on patient-centric drug discovery and development\, exciting advances in cancer treatments\, and living with cancer.

SUMMARY:How to Tell Your Innovation's Amazing Story
DESCRIPTION:How can you cut through the noise and help potential partners and investors understand what makes your product special\, innovative\, and worth a closer look? \nInvestors\, journalists\, and the general public are awash in information overload. Join Joshua Gunn\, founder of Cambridge\, MA-based creative studio Planet Nutshell\, for a session on how you can easily use the power of video to explain what you do and amplify the message of your company or idea. \nIt’s all about your story.\nWe see it in the most compelling\, successful pitches at M2D2 events like Barracuda Bowl and the $200K Challenge: It’s the personal stories behind the innovations that make potential investors and strategic partners prick up their ears and want to learn more. Tell your story on video and suddenly it becomes visually captivating\, more memorable\, and highly sharable. \nJosh will reveal insights from more than a decade of working with biotech and healthcare companies of all sizes\, from fledgling startups to big corporations. We’ll explore the one thing that holds true for all of them: The importance and power of telling a great story.

SUMMARY:What can AI learn from our own brains? Bridging the gap between biology and code
DESCRIPTION:AI grows ever more powerful and ubiquitous\, powered by vast sources of data and inexpensive cloud processing power. Yet the human brain\, using just 25W of power and 6 kHz neuron speed\, remains many orders more efficient than current AI processing approaches. Leveraging insights from new optical and physiological recording techniques\, Prof. Bart M. ter Haar Romeny will help bridge the gap between AI and how the human brain processes sight\, giving practical applications with respect to computer vision and machine learning\, especially in medical image analysis such as neuroimaging that can help accelerate neurology research\, clinical trials and care delivery. \nA 30 minute lecture by Em.Prof. Romeny will be followed by a chat with his former students\, Vesna Prčkovska\, CEO\, and Paulo Rodriguez\, CTO of QMENTA. Please bring your questions for our closing Q&A. Zoom space is limited\, so reserve your place today. \nKey Takeaways:\n– How we can bridge the gap between biological and AI communities\n– New optical and physiological recording techniques in imaging analysis\n– Practical applications with respect to computer vision and machine learning \nProf. Bart M. ter Haar Romeny is emeritus professor in Biomedical Image Analysis at Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands. He obtained his MSc in Applied Physics from Delft University of Technology and PhD from Utrecht University. \nHe worked his whole career on biologically inspired medical image analysis algorithms\, especially for computer-aided diagnosis (cancer\, heart\, brain\, diabetes)\, image guided neurosurgery and visualization of brain connectivity from MRI diffusion tensor imaging. He initiated and led the RetinaCheck project\, a large international AI-based retinal image screening program for diabetes. He published over 250 papers\, 12 books and book chapters\, and 3 patents. He teaches a national PhD course on the neuro-mathematics of deep learning and human visual perception.
