Leo Anthony Celi
Principal Research Scientist Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Leo Anthony Celi, MD, MPH, MSc. is Principal Research Scientist Massachusetts Institute of Technology Associate Professor (Part Time) Harvard Medical School. Leo focuses on scaling clinical research to be more inclusive through open access data and software, particularly for limited resource settings; identifying bias in the data to prevent them from being encrypted in models and algorithms; and redesigning research using the principles of team science and the hive learning strategy.
Raghav Awasthi
PhD scholar at IIIT,Delhi
Raghav is currently a Ph.D. scholar at IIIT-D working on AI in Healthcare. Prior to joining this institute, he completed Masters in Mathematics from IIT Kanpur where he was the rank opener for the batch.He also outperformed in CSIR-JRF which approved his funding for Ph.D. His Ph.D. thesis is currently focused on Causal Machine Learning and Reinforcement Learning in Healthcare. His focus is to build data-driven decision support that is explainable and effectively deployable.He is highly motivated to explore the applications of Mathematics in Healthcare.
