The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences awarded The Leland Stanford Junior University a $652,850 Project Grant under the Medical Library Assistance program (CFDA 93.879) on June 15, 2026, with completion scheduled for April 30, 2031. This award funds research on the systematic evaluation and validation of Large Language Models (LLMs) and Foundation Models (FMs) in clinical and medical applications. The project will develop and deliver three primary products: (1) shared benchmarking standards to enable consistent, rigorous evaluation of LLMs across medical tasks; (2) adaptation recipes that provide guidance on performance trade-offs associated with different post-training strategies for medical models; and (3) evidence-based frameworks for optimal human-AI teaming configurations in clinical settings. The research will generate reusable, concrete procedures to verify the clinical benefits of LLM deployment in healthcare contexts, addressing the current gap between promotional claims and demonstrated value. Conducted at Stanford's Palo Alto facility, the project directly supports the Medical Library Assistance program's objective to advance biomedical informatics research and data science methodologies that improve human health discovery and clinical decision-making through computational approaches and artificial intelligence.Federal Grant Award Summary
