Meet Dr. Sandeep Dave: New Wellcome Clinical Distinguished Professor
At the beginning of his senior year in college as a computer science major, Sandeep Dave, MD, MS, wanted a career in artificial intelligence (AI). By the end of the year, after researching and writing about AI for his thesis, Dave decided to change course.
“I came away very unhappy at what passed for artificial intelligence,” says Dave, a professor of Hematologic Malignancies and Cellular Therapy. “Computers playing chess is one thing, but being able to model language and reasoning—those things still remain out of reach for even the state-of-the-art technologies today. That made me think of human mechanisms, human physiology, and the wonder that underlies it.”
