In the November installment of the 2024-25 academic year roundup, we highlight some of the top projects the ISB Education team is working on. This month, ISB hosted Ignite STEM, an annual fundraiser that raised more than $50,000 for the ISB Education team’s important work, and more.
New peer-reviewed research out of ISB highlights the strengths of large language models in uncovering social determinants of health while underscoring the need for human oversight and improved de-identification methods.
