Leo Anthony Celi, M.D., M.S., M.P.H., has practiced medicine in three continents, giving him broad perspectives in healthcare delivery. As clinical research director and principal research scientist at the MIT Laboratory for Computational Physiology (LCP) and as an attending physician at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC), he brings together clinicians and data scientists to support research using data routinely collected in the process of care. Leo also founded and co-directs Sana, a cross-disciplinary organization based at the Institute for Medical Engineering and Science at MIT, whose objective is to leverage information technology to improve health outcomes in low- and middle-income countries. He is one of the course directors for global health informatics to improve quality of care, and collaborative data science in medicine, both at MIT. He is an editor of the textbook for each course, both released under an open access license. Leo has spoken in 25 countries about the value of data in improving health outcomes.
