The National Institutes of Health (NIH) campuses host a variety of events that inform, challenge, and unite the biomedical research community. IRP investigators lead or participate in many of these events, and they regularly present their work at scientific conferences at the NIH and around the world. We invite you to learn about (and possibly join us in) some of our upcoming events. Unless otherwise noted, times listed are Eastern Standard Time (EST).
The early life period is critical for long-term health. Fetal growth abnormalities and cardiometabolic diseases are interconnected and cause high burden of morbidity. The placenta, an organ with important functions during pregnancy, holds clues about genetic and prenatal environmental risk factors, which can guide interventions to promote health across lifespan. In this talk, Dr. Tekola-Ayele will present his human genomic-epidemiology studies on fetal growth and placental epigenetic response to maternal metabolic factors, rendering mechanistic insights on health outcomes in childhood and later life.

Biomedical science is in the early phase of a technological revolution, driven in large part by innovations in deep learning neural network architecture and availability of computational power. These cutting-edge techniques are being applied to every sub-field of the biological sciences, and with novel ground-breaking advancements arriving every week it is challenging for researchers to stay up to speed on what is available and possible.
This one-day in-person NIH AI Symposium will bring together researchers from a broad range of disciplines to share their AI-related research, with the goal of disseminating the newest AI research, providing an opportunity to network, and to cross-pollinate ideas across disciplines in order to advance AI research in biomedicine. We welcome all NIH researchers who are interested in AI, from novices to experts.
