I'm starting more open lab neuroAI projects over MedARC Discord but I no longer can provide free compute for volunteers, making open collaboration hard If anyone can connect me to ways I could get gpu compute for volunteers to support open source neuroAI collabs, hit me up🙏

nobody knew this but actually my sister Tiara Abraham came up with the name MedARC

How to "read minds" with generative AI: 1. Use a brain activity measurement approach with the appropriate spatiotemporal resolution for the task to scan people. For example, EEG has poor spatial resolution and better temporal resolution so it may be best for brain-to-text, while

I want to say I'm really proud of the work we've done at MedARC over the past 2 years since its inception: • Published landmark papers on fMRI-to-image "mind-reading" (MindEye and MindEye2) • Published (in collaboration with Stanford) two landmark papers on chest X-ray

Lovely summary of the incredible achievements from MedARC s/o to all my collaborators and MedARC volunteers who enabled this research

Extremely grateful to work with Paul and Tanishq on Brain fMRI decoding (MindEye2) and present it at Vienna last year. We are working on the Algonauts 2025 challenge, feel free to join!

We came in 4th place in the The Algonauts Project 2025 challenge! Goal was to predict brain activity to movie watching. Incredibly lucky to work w/ MedARC team where we got very competitive results despite the simplest model arch (no transformers, just conv + linear) Paper below!

Nice work by MedARC team!

IMO a challenge limiting modern medical AI is that data + domain expertise are in hospitals & academia but they have no compute + AI talent. Industry can do large-scale AI training, but little domain expertise and medical data. With MedARC + Sophont, we hope to create a

Excited to announce that Sophont has raised $9.22M in combined pre-seed+seed rounds! 🚀🔥 Led by Kindred Ventures, with participation from @delphi_ventures Upfront Ventures AICONIC VENTURES also @jeffdean, @logankilpatrick, clem 🤗 (via Factorial Capital), Lukas Biewald & others

At MedARC we are building a comprehensive suite of medical LLM evals, and we already have tons of volunteers and lots of great progress! The project started less than a week ago! Are there other medical LLM evals we should include?

yes we are! sophont.med/job_postings/l… we also have open-source RL medical LLM research in MedARC discord

Our team is working hard and doing great work, we have some cool research stuff to share this month, excited to release! Be sure to follow Sophont and MedARC if you want to stay up to date!

Sharing our work on training fMRI neuroimaging foundation models, to be presented at FMs for Brain & Body NeurIPS 2025 workshop Although this was an internal Sophont research project, we are now expanding this at MedARC If you're interested in contributing, join us in Discord!!

Some personal news: I've joined Sophont to help build the next generation of open medical foundation models. We've relaunched MedARC, our open science research community. Join us if you want to help advance open medical AI. And we are hiring.
