Planning: ADAPT in SC: AI-enabled Devices for the Advancement of Personalized and Transformative Healthcare in South Carolina

南卡罗来纳州的ADAPT项目将建立具有人工智能支持的定制性能的生物医学设备的设计能力，并确保其在南卡罗来纳州生产。该倡议的重点是建立一个全州范围的合作，以利用和实现该州的潜力，将人工智能整合到精确诊断设备、智能手术和精确康复的设计中。拟议的规划赠款将用于资助三次会议，包括ADAPT在SC参与者和利益相关者之间的一系列对话。预计这些会议将完善SC团队对基础人工智能科学及其在生物医学设备中的应用的最新技术的理解；人工智能和生物医学设备设计领域的教育、培训和劳动力发展的最新状况；以及利益相关者对影响人工智能技术和人工智能设备接受和采用的社会、商业和经济因素的看法。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The ADAPT in SC project will build capacity in the design of biomedical devices with AI enabled, customized performance and secure their manufacture in South Carolina. This initiative focuses on establishing a statewide collaboration which will harness and realize the potential in the state for integrating AI into the design of accurate devices of diagnoses, smart surgeries, and precision rehabilitation. The proposed planning grant will be used to fund three meetings comprising a series of dialogues among ADAPT in SC participants and stakeholders. These meetings are anticipated to refine the ADAPT in SC team’s understanding of the state of the art in fundamental AI science and its application in biomedical devices; the state of the art in education, training, and workforce development in the fields of AI and biomedical device design; and stakeholder perceptions of social, commercial, and economic factors affecting acceptance and adoption of AI techniques and AI-enabled devices.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
