AI in Medicine: Projects of InteRussia Fellows

Engineering
No lab coats, no stethoscopes — just code that learns what’s happening inside your head.

The InteRussia AI track in Novosibirsk wrapped up with two full-fledged research projects. Both teams worked on ways to apply artificial intelligence to the analysis of brain pathologies — from tumors to tissue damage.

What they worked on:
Split into international teams, they explored how neural networks can process thousands of brain images — detecting tumors, degenerative lesions, and damaged tissue. Their models aimed to support doctors in identifying affected areas faster and more accurately.

Each InteRussia fellowship ends differently. This one ended with working code, a sharper understanding of medical AI, and a shared sense of purpose.

The InteRussia program in engineering is implemented by the Mezhdunarodniki Autonomous Non-Profit Organisation in cooperation with the Gorchakov Fund, Novosibirsk State University, the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and Akadempark with the grant support from the Presidential Grants Foundation.
