This federal Project Grant award, with ID R01LM014250, was provided by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Medical Library Assistance (CFDA 93.879) program. The award totals $329,346 and is active from September 18, 2024 through August 31, 2028. The purpose of this grant is to develop "MyMSMentor", an AI-driven, personalized self-management support system for people with chronic conditions, with a focus on multiple sclerosis (MS). The key products to be delivered include: Comprehensive lifelong user modeling that combines information needs, known information, and self-management behavior change factors to provide proactive, patient-centered support. Five functional modules for symptom tracking, case summaries, note-taking, user model inference, and interactive interventions based on the Health Action Process Approach (HAPA). Iterative refinement and evaluation of MyMSMentor through participatory design with patient and clinician advisory boards. Validation of the feasibility and acceptability of MyMSMentor with 50 MS patients over a 30-day trial period. The overarching goal is to develop a generalizable model that bridges AI, big data, and social-cognitive science to enable precision self-management support for people with chronic conditions.
