This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $670,000 to The Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) to develop a data-driven early warning system framework for detecting and responding to emerging epidemics of illicit substance use. The project aims to (1) create predictive models to identify high-risk communities and emerging threats, (2) uncover causal factors driving these substance use patterns, (3) optimize intervention strategies to address shifting epidemics, and (4) develop a decision support tool as a proof-of-concept. This multi-disciplinary effort, involving collaborators from operations research, criminal justice, and public health policy, will leverage geospatial and multimodal data to enhance fundamental understanding of illicit drug use trends. The project will also engage and train graduate students to develop new analytical tools addressing complex societal challenges. No sub-awards are planned under this 4-year project, which commenced on August 1, 2023.
