Machine Learning Competitions

Scientists are increasingly turning to competitions to leverage machine learning to solve 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. Learn more about our recent competition — or participate in an upcoming one!

Upcoming Competition

We will hold our next machine learning competition on inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) later this year. To receive updates on when sign-ups open, make sure you are on our mailing list!

Cancer Immunotherapy Machine Learning Competition

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.
