Yi Lu is a PhD candidate in Biological and Biomedical Sciences at Harvard Medical School with 14 years of research experience developing next-generation diagnostics and 3D spatial immunoprofiling methods that combine digital pathology and AI. Based in Cambridge, MA, Yi has rotated through premier institutions including the Broad Institute, Brigham and Women’s, and Boston Children’s Hospital, bringing a systems-level perspective to translational cancer immunology. Prior roles at MIT, Mass General, and the Whitehead Institute reflect deep hands-on expertise in neurobiology and computational approaches to tissue profiling. Yi also cross-registers at Harvard Business School and MIT Sloan, signaling a rare blend of quantitative science and strategic, translational thinking. Known for integrating cutting-edge AI with tissue-scale biology, Yi focuses on making spatial immunoprofiling clinically actionable rather than purely exploratory.
