The next breakthrough in medical AI might come from a model that was never built for medicine.
That’s the story I shared at Meta’s Open Science Summit:
🔬 SAM → MedSAM: we adapted general image segmentation to identify anatomy and disease across medical images.
🫀 JEPA → EchoJEPA: we built on video representation learning to study the beating heart, training on 18M ultrasound videos.
Huge credit to @JunMa_AI4Health (MedSAM), @alifmunim (EchoJEPA), and our incredible collaborators.
Honored to present at @Meta's HQ in Menlo Park and great to reconnect with old friends and meet new ones!
And a big shoutout to @AIatMeta for its leadership in open-source AI. Sharing powerful models gives researchers around the world the foundations to tackle problems far beyond their original purpose. Our work is one example of that impact. @alexandr_wang
You can’t predict who will build the next breakthrough on your research. Making it open gives them a chance.
Papers + code (all open source!) 👇

A PNAS study flagged 4,085 of 33,159 cancer papers as likely paper-mill work, and found they mostly cite each other. Detecting this is now infrastructure, not a journal's side task. #openscience qut.edu.au/news?id=206310

Who pays to create, share, and sustain knowledge? Sometimes it’s easier to start a hard conversation about costs when everyone is looking at the same picture. Our illustration can help you make the case for a more sustainable OA ecosystem. 👉️ sparceurope.org/bridging-two… #OAWeek

Finally got to put together a complete deck on the state of open models.
What they are, licenses, how competitive they are, signs people are using them, distillation's impact, and how we balance the risks and benefits of openness!
Will record a video lecture of these soon, and hopefully re-do them a few times a year.

Sustaining open infrastructure is a shared responsibility. 🤝
Library consortia are pooling funds, simplifying admin, and providing steady support for open science

One of the 5 strands at the #AIS26 is #openscience
Because as @hilaryhanahoe SG @resdatall stresses out AI puts OS at a test
📌 For AI, FAIR principles are no longer a good practice but a requirement.
📌 OS in the AI era is no longer a technological question but a political one
