This $467,321 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) will provide 10 undergraduate students per summer with meaningful research experiences in health informatics at Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) over a 3-year period. The REU (Research Experiences for Undergraduates) program, titled "Program for Access to Training in Health Informatics" (REU-PATHI), will engage students from diverse backgrounds in innovative research at the intersection of computational science, engineering, social science, and health. Students will work directly with faculty mentors on projects focused on computationally-intensive topics, precision health, and human-technology interaction, preparing them to become the next generation of researchers addressing important health-related challenges through technology-based solutions. The program will also provide opportunities for students to disseminate their research and inspire high school students to pursue STEM educational pathways.
