Accessible Healthcare through AI-Augmented Decisions (AHeAD) Center
A Proposed National Science Foundation Industry University Cooperative Research Center 
The center is a collaboration between the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, Tulane University, the University of Florida, Georgia Tech, and Tampere University.
Health organizations need research-driven, independently evaluated, well-validated approaches to using AI-augmented decision-support tools to improve patient care access.
AI has the potential to make healthcare more personalized, affordable, and accessible by automating routine tasks, predicting patient risks, and enabling remote care delivery. However, bringing AI into health systems faces many technical, ethical, and logistical challenges, including data privacy concerns, clinical safety, algorithmic bias, and seamless integration with existing workflows.
Partner with the AHeAD Center to create next-generation AI-augmented healthcare decision-support tools for your organization.
