The DOE SC program in Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR) hereby announces its interest in receiving proposals for collaborations with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) research community to jointly address important issues and challenges in developing artificial intelligence and machine learning methods for privacy-sensitive datasets.

The aim of this funding is to bring together researchers from the DOE National Laboratories and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to jointly develop new flagship datasets and privacy-preserving methods and algorithms to improve healthcare. This funding is in response to congressional direction for the DOE to expand its successful collaborative research efforts with NIH in the data and computational mission space.

Biomedical and behavioral researchers have collected vast amounts of data across spatial and temporal scales, including information about genetics, tissue structure and function, and the human body as a whole. This combination of massive datasets and machine learning advances makes it possible to build a bridge to improved research and health outcomes. Accordingly, the NIH Common Fund’s Bridge to Artificial Intelligence (Bridge2AI) program was recently announced and is soliciting proposals to generate flagship datasets that can be used to address biomedical and behavioral research grand challenges via artificial intelligence and machine learning analysis through its first NIH Bridge2AI Research Opportunity Announcement.
