We are pleased to announce that the QIAI Lab has been awarded a second grant from the NIH, a U01 under NCI’s Informatics Technologies for Cancer Research and Management (ITCR) program. The grant entitled “Distributed computation of predictive models for precision medicine in cancer” will focus on developing methods and tools for training AI models relevant to cancer through federated computational methods that do not require any data sharing and that will propel multi-institutional collaborations for creating more robust AI models. The ITRC program is a very large network of centers developing enabling data science technologies to advance cancer discovery, and the QIAI Lab's involvement in this network will permit it to have a voice in developing emerging standardized approaches to data analysis in cancer problems as well as to deliver enabling technologies to the community that will accelerate creation of AI applications.
