MIT is creating the Health and Life Sciences Collaborative to drive high-impact solutions through interdisciplinary projects spanning engineering, science, AI, economics, business, policy, design, and the humanities. The collaborative will also strengthen partnerships between MIT, hospitals, and industry to fund research, share data, connect investors, and advance commercialization. 

Media Lab Professor Canan Dagdeviren will be speaking at the HEALTH session of the launch of this collaborative, and she is also one of the planning organizers of this event, representing the MIT School of Architecture + Planning (SA+P).
