Details and registration link below. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 2025, 12:00-1:00 PM ET Beyond Wearables: The Rise of Invisible AI-Powered Health Tech! Dina Katabi, PhD Thuan and Nicole Pham Professor MacArthur Fellow MIT Computer Science & Artificial Intelligence Lab MIT VIA ZOOM | REGISTER HERE: https://tinyurl.com/CACKatabi ABSTRACT:  We face a “silver tsunami”: the number of older adults is increasing at an unprecedented rate, while shortages of both professional and family caregivers are growing. Can technology help? What if AI could analyze the wireless signals that bounce around a home and measure people’s physiological signals, diagnose new diseases, detect exacerbations of existing conditions, and track medication response, all without wearables and as patients go about their daily lives? In this talk, I will describe how we can achieve this vision. Our work is enabled by two technologies. First, my lab has created a device resembling a Wi-Fi box that uses AI to analyze wireless reflections from individuals, enabling measurement of respiratory, cardiovascular, EEG, and musculoskeletal signals, without body contact. These devices are already used by pharmaceutical companies and deployed with patients living with Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, ALS, lupus, Crohn’s disease, and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), generating a large real-world dataset to train and validate the AI models. Second, I will explain how we adapted large language model (LLM) methods to interpret physiological data, establishing a foundation model for screening complex diseases and tracking medication response. I envision is a future in which “the Invisibles”, a new class of AI-powered, contactless sensors, enable smart health environments and shift care from reactive to proactive, improving health and well-being.

  • NIH Grant Writing Boot Camp

    10:00 AM to 5:00 PM
    Online Event
    • Mailman School of Public Health
    The NIH Grant Writing Boot Camp is a two-day intensive boot camp combining lectures, hands-on activities, and discussions to demystify the NIH application process. This training will prepare participants to submit an NIH grant proposal that turns reviewers into advocates, positioning the applicant for success. The 2-day NIH Grant Writing Boot Camp: Building a Strong Foundation for Funding Success will provide comprehensive training that supplies researchers with the tools to write persuasive, effective grant proposals. Through a combination of seminars, discussions, examples, and hands-on activities, with a particular focus on navigating between-the-lines on how to tailor your proposals to grant reviewers, this training will orient you to all aspects of the academic funding process (i.e., grant writing and grant strategizing), including: How to identify and apply for the right funding opportunities with the NIH (and beyond); How to position your research and yourself to make reviewers your research advocates; How to target your application to the right place at the right time; and How to write clearly, effectively, and persuasively when telling your scientific story. Audience and Requirements Investigators from any institution and from all career stages are welcome to attend, and we particularly encourage trainees and early-stage investigators to participate. No prior experience in preparing or submitting NIH grant applications is necessary. However, each participant should be prepared to share* and work on an NIH Specific Aims page and an NIH biosketch. Participants who have not previously written an NIH-style Aims page and/or biosketch will have an opportunity to draft their page and receive initial feedback ahead of the virtual, livestream workshop. There are no other requirements to attend the NIH Grant Writing Boot Camp. *Hands-on activities will use participant aims pages, and we therefore request that all participants respect the confidentiality of other attendees. Any participant who prefers not to share their research ideas may create a mock aims page to use during the boot camp. Additional Information Subscribe for updates on new Boot Camp details and registration deadlines. Contact the NIH Grant Writing Boot Camp team. Capacity is limited. Paid registration is required to attend.
