Description
The NIH Common Fund, in partnership with other NIH Institutes and Centers, is planning to release a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for the Precision Medicine with Artificial Intelligence - Integrating Imaging with Multimodal Data (PRIMED-AI) program. This initiative aims to establish a Validation Center to serve as an independent hub for third-party verification, validation, and uncertainty quantification of AI-enabled, image-based, multimodal Clinical Decision Support (CDS) tools. The Center will systematically retest and harmonize PRIMED-AI deliverables to comprehensively characterize the performance and reliability of these CDS tools, which are designed to enhance personalized medicine for patients with chronic and other health conditions.
