This federal Cooperative Agreement award from the Department of the Interior's Interior Business Center supports the "Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H)" program (CFDA 93.384). The $9,433,900 award to Tulane University will fund the development of an ultra-high-speed, high-resolution tissue scanning system and associated machine learning models capable of rapidly detecting and mapping residual cancer cells during surgical procedures. The project, titled "MAGIC SCAN," aims to transform cancer surgery by addressing the persistent problem of incomplete tumor removal through innovative microscopy, automation, and AI technologies. The 2-year project is expected to deliver a system that can provide pathology-quality imaging of large tumor specimens and automated cancer detection within 10 minutes, with the goal of eliminating the worry of incomplete tumor removal for cancer patients.
