The Cava laboratory is a research group interested in improving the trustworthiness of artificial intelligence (AI) models deployed in healthcare settings. We study algorithmic notions of interpretability, fairness, accuracy, and robustness in medical applications of AI.

The lab is part of the Computational Health Informatics Program at Boston Children’s Hospital, affiliated with Harvard Medical School.
