Scientists are increasingly turning to competitions to leverage machine learning for solving biomedical problems. At the Schmidt Center, we’re taking this work one step further by using machine learning competitions to help prioritize what experiments biologists could run next.
Our three-part machine learning competition on inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is now live (as of October 28, 2024). Crunch 1 is due February 7; Crunch 2 is due March 21; Crunch 3 is due April 18. See the competition page on Crunch.

We held a machine learning competition in January 2023, in which participants developed algorithms to uncover new ways to modify, or “perturb,” T cells to make them better cancer-cell killers.
