The Eric and Wendy Schmidt Center is enabling a new field of interdisciplinary research at the intersection of machine learning and biology, aimed at improving human health. Our researchers and collaborators work together to make the biological questions of our time key drivers for foundational advances in machine learning — and vice versa.
Learn About Our ResearchWe develop theoretical, computational, and algorithmic paradigms together with new experimental datasets to elucidate the programs of life.
New machine learning techniques boost virtual drug screening
A more effective experimental design for engineering a cell into a new state
New method identifies spatial biomarkers of Alzheimer’s disease progression
Machine learning model finds genetic factors for heart disease
We are building a collaborative community and training the next generation of leaders in machine learning who drive biological discovery. Get to know our leadership, fellows, staff, collaborators, and more.
Join the next generation of computer scientists, statisticians, and applied mathematicians, who drive biological discovery.
The Eric and Wendy Schmidt Center is part of the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard and is located in a hub of computational and biomedical research in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Being at the Broad allows us unparalleled access to biological datasets – and to the scientists who generate them.
