The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded a $306,872 Project Grant (CFDA 93.113 - Environmental Health) to Pico Portal, Inc. to develop and validate advanced AI-driven tools that automate and increase the efficiency of conducting risk-of-bias (ROB) assessments in environmental health systematic reviews (SRs). The project aims to utilize large language models (LLMs) to accurately identify and extract critical text passages from studies related to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The goal is to refine the LLM-based workflows until their performance closely mirrors that of human experts, thereby reducing the time and resources required to conduct SRs in environmental health and potentially other fields like healthcare and social science. The project has a performance period from June 2, 2025, to May 31, 2026.
