It equips trainees nationwide to apply AI/ML to big data analysis and to conduct innovative research at the intersection of healthcare barriers and AI/ML using a multi-modal set of data elements drawn from a broad range of cohort participants.
The overall goal of the AIM-AHEAD Bridge2AI for Clinical Care Training Program is to expand Bridge2AI for Clinical Care data access through engagement, training, and mentorship, including the use of AI/ML in big data analysis for trainees across the nation. This effort will allow AIM-AHEAD trainees to conduct novel data-driven research at the intersection of AI/ML and barriers to healthcare with a multi-modal array of data elements from a wide array of cohort participants.
To accomplish this objective, a cohort of up to 30 professionals committed to applying AI/ML to benefit American communities will complete an intensive 8-month program in advanced statistical and computational data analysis developed by the Bridge2AI team, utilizing the resources of the Bridge2AI AI/ML for Clinical Care Network and AIM-AHEAD’s Data Science Training Core. Completing the training will equip the motivated professional to conduct the in-depth analysis of large datasets essential for cutting-edge biomedical research. The awardees will benefit from the Bridge2AI Cohort 1 experiences and lessons learned by advancing their professional development, cross-disciplinary engagement skills, and employing a variety of knowledge exchange tools, which will facilitate their exposure to national-level expertise of the AIM-AHEAD Community.
Program Objectives
- Objective 1: The trainee will demonstrate advanced expertise in applying AI/ML principles to clinical care.
- Objective 2: The trainee will develop and present use cases suitable to apply in Bridge2AI Data Topics.
