Funding Agency: National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) Doro Mind Inc. will develop a digital platform designed to address adverse effects resulting from non-disordered drug use in individuals with serious mental illness (SMI). The platform will incorporate two primary components: user interfaces to support Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC)—an evidence-based treatment approach that has demonstrated effectiveness but lacks scalability due to insufficient coordination tools—and a large language model (LLM)-based role-playing capability that enables families to practice realistic appointment scenarios in advance. The user interface component will leverage cognitive task analysis to improve collaborative decision-making and connectivity among providers, patients, and family caregivers. The LLM-based role-playing tool will utilize novel prompting techniques to minimize information fabrication while ensuring clinical accuracy and adherence to substance use treatment best practices. This 12-month project addresses a documented gap in care coordination for individuals with SMI and substance use disorders. By combining advanced software interfaces with artificial intelligence-driven family training capabilities, the platform aims to improve appointment efficiency, enhance communication skills among families and patients, and ultimately expand access to evidence-based treatment at scale. The award is designed to evaluate the platform's feasibility, usability, and potential impact on patient outcomes and family engagement in the treatment process.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
