About
Mihaela van der Schaar is a pioneering figure at the intersection of machine learning, artificial intelligence, and personalized medicine. Her research focuses on developing novel AI frameworks for time-series data, causal inference, and reinforcement learning, with transformative applications in healthcare. She is renowned for creating the first machine learning models that can dynamically adapt treatment strategies for individual patients, revolutionizing precision medicine. Her seminal work on functional contour-following via haptic perception and reinforcement learning (45+ citations) demonstrates her early contributions to autonomous systems that integrate tactile feedback with decision-making. With over 30,000 citations and numerous best paper awards, van der Schaar has been recognized as a Fellow of the IEEE, the Royal Society, and the Alan Turing Institute. She also founded the van der Schaar Lab at Cambridge, which has produced groundbreaking tools for clinical trial design, survival analysis, and automated diagnosis. Her work has been featured in top journals like Nature Machine Intelligence and The Lancet, and she is a vocal advocate for ethical, interpretable AI in medicine.
