The key objectives are to: 1) Develop high-throughput technologies that integrate 3D structural ensembles of biomolecules with quantitative measurements of in vitro and cellular functions to build predictive models...
This $191,484 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (CFDA 93.855 - Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research) supports research at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (Bidmc) to use artificial intelligence (AI) to: 1) predict changes in opportunistic infection (OI) hospitalization and mortality rates for people with HIV (PWH) by simulating Medicaid expansion in the Southern U.S., 2) develop a time-series deep learning model to predict poor...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) provides $382,852 to Brown University to develop methodological innovations for improving the use of observational causal inference models to estimate the population-level impact of interventions on infectious disease outcomes. The key products and services to be delivered include: Proposing robust specifications for observational...
This Project Grant award, valued at $2,362,500 and effective from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2029, was provided by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) under the federal Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279). The project aims to overcome policy and regulatory barriers that hinder access to evidence-based harm reduction and treatment services for preventing HIV transmission and overdose among people who use drugs. Key deliverables include: 1) a tool to identify policy...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), provides $688,271 to Yale University to conduct a comprehensive research project examining the spatial and temporal variability in a state's illicit drug market.
