Virtual patients and biomedical knowledge graphs are two powerful but disconnected technologies, developed by different experts with distinct objectives.
The VPE Team from BioMed X Institute in partnership with Sanofi invites you to unify these technologies and enable the automatic generation of virtual patients from biomedical knowledge graph.
What to expect
- We will leverage the technologies of both worlds to bridge the divide and enable seamless generation of virtual patients from biomedical knowledge graphs.
- Teams composed of people experienced in data science and machine learning, and computational biology will compete with the guidance of industry and research experts.
- Connect with industry leaders, researchers, and like-minded innovators and engage with top experts in machine learning, computational biology, and biomedical AI.
- Receive a formal certificate recognizing your participation and contribution—great for your professional portfolio and LinkedIn profile.
- Learn directly from experts in computational biology, machine learning, and biomedical AI. Gain hands-on experience with state-of-the-art tools.
- Stand out to potential employers, research institutions, and industry partners who are actively looking for talent in AI-driven biomedical research.
- Outstanding contributions may lead to co-authored publications or further collaboration opportunities with academia and industry.
- Your work will contribute to open-source projects, ensuring visibility and impact in the global research community.
