Artificial Intelligence and Technology Collaboratory (P30 Clinical Trial Optional)

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) invites Center Core (P30) applications for the National Institute on Aging's (NIA) Artificial Intelligence and Technology Collaboratories (AITC) program. The AITC program promotes the development and implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) approaches and technology through research projects for aging and Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and AD-related dementias (ADRD) research. All applications should propose strategies for addressing challenges surrounding AI and technology development and implementation, and to employ, when possible, best practices established in the fields of aging and AD/ADRD.

The AITC Program supports innovative cross-disciplinary collaborative teams, with investigators from academia, non-profit, and healthcare sectors across a wide range of disciplines working to advance priorities in aging and AD/ADRD research.

Goals of the overall AITC Program are as follows:

  1. Serve as a national resource to promote development and implementation of innovative AI and technology approaches to advance aging and AD/ADRD priorities;
  2. Support nationwide research projects to develop and implement AI and technology approaches and respond rapidly to emerging priorities in the shifting AI and technology landscape; and
  3. Collaborate with a wide range of stakeholders in addressing algorithmic fairness and how to incorporate AI and technology approaches in the special circumstances of individuals experiencing cognitive decline/impairment.

In achieving these goals, it is expected that the Collaboratories will interact with each other and with the AITCC. The AITCC will serve as a hub for the AITC Program and will facilitate and coordinate activities across Collaboratories. The AITCC will also facilitate a centralized program-wide Stakeholder Engagement Team to ensure that AI approaches and technologies developed by the Collaboratories will be maximally adoptable by and accessible to their end users by soliciting stakeholder input throughout all phases of the development cycle.
