//Education

• 2017: Massachusets Institute of Technology, PhD Electrical Engineering
• 2011: Oxford University, MSc. in biomedical engineering
• 2005: New Mexico State University, B.S. degrees in computer science and electrical engineering

//Early days

Marzyeh Ghassemi was home-schooled by her mother throughout her entire primary and secondary education. She started college when she was 15. At the age of 20, Ghassemi graduated from New Mexico State University in 2005 in electrical engineering, computer science, and mathematics.

Marzyeh Ghassemi collaborated with doctors in the intensive care unit at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center during her Ph.D. studies. In that work, Marzyeh Ghassemi realized that one of their biggest challenges was information overload.

//Career

Professor Ghassemi’s Ph.D. research focused on creating and applying machine learning algorithms. She wanted to improve the prediction and stratification of concerning human risks. She collaborated at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Massachusetts General Hospital. Ghassemi’s work has been applied to estimating the physiological state of patients during critical illnesses, modeling the need for clinical intervention, and diagnosing phonotraumatic voice disorders from wearable sensor data.

Currently, Dr. Marzyeh Ghassemi is an Assistant Professor at the University of Toronto in Computer Science and Medicine. She’s a Vector Institute faculty member holding a Canadian CIFAR AI Chair too. She has served as a NeurIPS 2019 Workshop Co-Chair, and Board Member of the Machine Learning for Health Unconference.
