This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) provides $599,999.00 to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota to establish a Research Experience for Teachers (RET) Site focused on promoting AI fluency in healthcare.
Over a 3-year period from September 2024 to August 2027, the RET Site will enable high school teachers from rural Minnesota to conduct research on the use of artificial intelligence in healthcare under the guidance of Mayo Clinic AI researchers. The teachers will then use these experiences to develop curriculum materials to be shared with other educators, with the goal of encouraging students to pursue careers in healthcare and AI. The project will also evaluate the program's outcomes to inform future iterations and enable broader dissemination of the educational model beyond Minnesota.
