Description
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is seeking applications for a Validation Center to support the development of innovative, reliable, and cost-effective AI-based tools that integrate clinical imaging with other health data types to enhance personalized medicine for patients with chronic and other health conditions. The Validation Center will serve as an independent hub for third-party verification, validation, and uncertainty quantification of AI-enabled, image-based, multimodal Clinical Decision Support (CDS) tools. Key responsibilities of the Validation Center include the systematic validation of PRIMED-AI Consortium deliverables, verification, validation, interoperability, and uncertainty quantification to comprehensively characterize performance of the CDS tools.
Some key points to consider:
• The Validation Center will focus on verification, validation, interoperability, and uncertainty quantification to comprehensively characterize performance of the CDS tools developed by the program.
• The Validation Center will involve the systematic validation of PRIMED-AI Consortium deliverables.
• Applicants must provide a Data Management and Sharing Plan, which must address the elements in the structured format.
• The award recipient is solely responsible for the timely acquisition of all appropriate proprietary rights, including intellectual property rights, and all materials needed for the award recipient to perform the project.
