"Ensuring that policymakers have access to unbiased, evidence-based information and data is one of our hallmarks. It's as critical to our engagements with Congress as it is to the administration," says Beverly Babers, a principal strategist in MITRE's Center for Data-Driven Policy.
A university, a research institute, an Air Force base, and MITRE—all working together to innovate on next generation technologies for global competitiveness.
Can we anticipate how we will react to a pandemic? The Artificial University helps decision makers create rules based on real human behavior, using a complex model that simulates students' responses to constraints and interventions.
Two MITRE labs -- thousands of miles and half a day apart -- collaborate on simulations to expand one of the world's busiest airports, while gaining knowledge that helps make global air travel safer and more efficient.
The root causes of social inequity are longstanding and complex. Moving forward to a future that removes barriers will take a systems approach to address racial, economic, and health-based disparities.
Assisting the FAA is a key reason Qina Diao wanted to come to MITRE. "I knew that, at MITRE, I could push my research forward to tackle real-world problems," she says. "And that I would be able to have a direct impact."
MITRE's design thinking approach aims to improve veterans' transition experience by reducing social isolation. It's a potentially life-saving intervention.
"Whatever the challenge, my first act is to call up a diverse set of very smart, competent individuals and create a diverse team that will work together. The team is the real power behind the solution," says Dr. Jay Schnitzer, MITRE chief medical and technology officer.
"One thing I love about MITRE is having the flexibility not just to support one sponsor [of a federal R&D center] fully, but to support multiple sponsors, especially those with intersecting challenges," says Lara Suarez, a cyber operations engineer at MITRE.
"In all these projects, MITRE's role is to make sure that the path forward for the use of plasma is determined by data-driven scientific evidence to rigorously answer the important questions regarding safety and efficacy," says Dr. Jay Schnitzer, MITRE’s chief medical and technology officer.
