Biomedical Data Science and Engineering

The Biomedical Data Science and Engineering group aims to research and apply computational methods to all kinds of problems in biomedical contexts, especially focused on Artificial Intelligence (AI), covering every machine learning technique, as well as any type of data, from images to natural language. The group has a transversal approach, seeking active collaboration with the rest of the Institute's groups and other external actors, and working with a direct involvement with the Data Science Unit (DSU) to facilitate the transfer of results to clinical practice and innovation in products and services.
