About Us

Harvard Ophthalmology AI Lab is a research team co-founded by Tobias Elze, PhD and Mengyu Wang, PhD in 2017, which strives for transformation of ocular disease diagnosis and prognosis with the power of artificial intelligence. Harvard Ophthalmology AI Lab is co-directed by by Dr. Tobias Elze and Dr. Mengyu Wang.

Located in the Schepens Eye Research Institute of Massachusetts Eye and Ear, Harvard Medical School, our team includes 4 core faculty members and 5 affiliate faculty members with more than 30 trainees including postdoctoral research fellows and research assistants and a supporting team of biostatisticians and engineers. Our core faculty members have published more than 200 publications and secured more than 6 million research funding from federal and private agencies.

We work in the intersection among mathematics, computer science, artificial intelligence and clinical ophthalmology. We aim to leverage mathematical, statistical and artificial intelligence modeling to enhance our knowledge and understanding of ocular diseases and ultimately improve clinical treatment and management. Our representative research work can be found here.

We invite you to explore our research through this site. We collaborate with research teams across the US and worldwide. If you are willing to establish collaborations or have any question, please feel free to contact us.
