Abstract

Project Summary The Massachusetts AI and Technology Center for Connected Care in Aging and Alzheimer's Disease (MassAITC) is a multidisciplinary Center spanning five sites – the University of Massachusetts Amherst, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Massachusetts General Hospital, Brandeis University and Northeastern University – that aims to foster interdisciplinary research on the development, validation and translation of emerging AI- enhanced technologies to enhance connections between older adults, caregivers, and clinicians in order to more effectively support healthy aging as well as the care of patients with AD/ADRD at home. This supplement aims to enhance our ability to interface with industry partners to facilitate industry-academic partnerships, assist with development or refinement of research proposals, provide technical guidance, assist with study designs, IRB applications and reliance agreements, provide fiscal oversight, and provide guidance on ML-ready dataset curation, and pilot project deliverables.
