Vikas Kumar Garg

My research interests span both theoretical and applied aspects of Quantum Computing & Artificial Intelligence (AI)/Machine Learning (ML)/Deep Learning (DL). Current focus is on applications in Computational Biology and Healthcare (with an emphasis on protein and drug design), Weather modeling, Material synthesis,  LLMs, and Computer Vision. See https://people.csail.mit.edu/vgarg/ for details and publications.

We collaborate widely with academic and industrial experts. In the last few years, I've worked closely with several amazing researchers:
