This $1,288,487 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program supports the University of Southern California (USC) for the "SCC-IRG TRACK 2: FOOD ENVIRONMENT DYNAMICS (FED)" research project. The goal is to leverage AI and human mobility data to address disparities in food access and improve Americans' diets. The project will analyze smartphone mobility data to evaluate policies and design interventions that increase equitable access to healthy foods in underserved Los Angeles County communities. USC will collaborate with government partners in public health and urban planning, as well as incorporate community feedback, to develop transferrable data science tools and systems frameworks to support evidence-based food environment policy. A $170,000 sub-award will support Northeastern University's contributions to the project.
