Living Models Lab

The Living Models Lab and research incubator supports young talents through multi-disciplinary mentorship and collaboration with industry to work on solutions around responsible AI across diverse domains such as healthcare, food, logistics, finance among others. Originating from joint projects in the Low-Code Application Development course, the Lab provides a space where students work in cross-domain teams (NextGenMinds) to co-design and build applications and interfaces that contribute to research-oriented solutions in high-impact societal domains. Its mission is to transform ideas into early prototypes (living models) while cultivating a new generation of students equipped with the knowledge and applied AI skills to work on technologies / models that address pressing societal challenges.

The Living Models Lab connects several clusters such as (H)iCARE (responsible AI for digital health) and HUMANE.AI (human-in-the-loop hybrid intelligence), co-designed in collaboration with the CODE section (M. Amir Haeri, S. Borsci), OOST Simulation Center (HF-CODE & BMS Lab) to advance human-centered (and human-in-the-loop) intelligence.

Collaborations are warmly welcomed with: industry, research projects and centers across UT (use cases, data, joint mentorship for early prototyping and joint proposals for seed support). Student ideas are also encouraged. Upcoming project topics to be announced.
