Description
The Public Impact Analytics Science Lab (PIAS-Lab) at Harvard was founded and is directed by Soroush Saghafian. Hosted by Harvard Kennedy School’s Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Business and Government, the lab advances and applies analytics to societal problems with public impact. Its mission is to improve societal outcomes through operations research, machine learning and big data, decision-making, statistics, artificial intelligence, and related fields, with a principal focus on healthcare.
The lab’s postdoctoral directory includes fellows, affiliate fellows, and visiting fellows. Research areas identified for individual fellows include optimization and machine learning in healthcare, statistical machine learning combined with operations research, hospital operations, and multi-agent reinforcement learning. These entries describe individual research affiliations rather than a common funded project.
