Marzieh Haghighi

Research Scientist, Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard

I’m an applied AI researcher passionate about developing innovative machine-learning-based solutions to complex real-life problems, especially those related to human health. Currently, I am a Research Scientist at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. My journey in interdisciplinary research has spanned various fields such as brain-computer interfaces, medical imaging, and cell biology. Prior to my current position, I conducted postdoctoral research at the Carpenter-Singh lab, focusing on morphological profiling. I also worked as a Research Fellow at Boston Children's Hospital, working on clinical MRI data.

My research interests include but are not limited to:

Building, optimizing, and scaling AI-based workflows for knowledge discovery in precision medicine.
Enhancing the robustness and interpretability of AI models in healthcare applications, while also developing methods for effectively integrating multimodal data sources into machine learning workflows.
Revisiting conventional methods to answer critical questions in computational biology, incorporating modern machine learning advances for innovative solutions, and enhanced information recovery.
