Pilot Core (Aging Focus): Technology Development and Refinement

老龄化试点核心的目标是利用多学科协作方法， 开发、完善和传播有潜力改善健康的技术， 美国老年人和/或他们的照顾者的福祉，重点是那些可以减轻目前的 在美国农村和城市地区获得和提供医疗保健的差距。本核心的目标 确定并资助创新的人工智能和机器学习支持的技术，这些技术有望改善 通过年度试点奖励程序，为没有阿尔茨海默病的老年人提供健康和福祉，以确保 获奖的试点项目设计精良，及时和严格，以协助进一步发展， 将已完成的试点项目转化为有益于老年人和/或其照顾者的产品， 扩大受资助的研究人员的专业知识和网络，重点关注老化的相关人工智能技术。飞行员将 从美国各地的调查人员中征求意见，并在一系列核心中开发，完善和支持 这将有助于连接老年人利益相关者，技术和人工智能专业知识，老年病学家和阿尔茨海默病 (AD)专家、临床研究人员、商业和风险投资领导人以及农村和城市卫生专家。 这个核心将与其他核心紧密结合，以确保最好的想法和技术 在整个AITC的支持下进行识别、优化、测试和试点。通过与 网络和指导核心和相关联盟，试点项目的想法和结果将 向关键利益相关者、决策者和有潜力促进 开发产品，并将其付诸实践。试点调查员将充分参与所有活动 如技术识别和培训核心（TITC）和网络和指导核心（NMC）中所述 通过研究的所有阶段，并将获得技术，环境和科学资源 在这个AITC中。

The goal of Pilot Core for Aging (PCB) is to utilize a multidisciplinary collaborative approach to identify, develop, refine, and disseminate promising technologies that have high potential to improve the health and wellbeing of older Americans and/or their caregivers, with an emphasis on those that can mitigate current disparities in access and delivery of health care in rural and urban areas across the US. The aims of this core are to identify and fund innovative AI and machine learning-supported technologies that promise to improve the health and well-being of older without Alzheimer's Disease through an annual pilot award process, to ensure awarded pilot projects are well-designed, timely and rigorous, to assist in the further development and translation of completed pilot projects into products that will benefit older adults and/or their caregivers, and to expand the expertise and network of funded investigators focused on aging relevant AI technologies. Pilots will be solicited from investigators across the US, and developed, refined, and supported within a series of cores that will help to connect older adults stakeholders, tech and AI expertise, Geriatricians and Alzheimer's disease (AD) experts, clinical researchers, business and venture capital leaders, and rural and urban health experts. This core will be tightly integrated with the other cores in order to assure that the best ideas and technologies are identified, optimized, tested, and piloted by support from the entire AITC. Through close collaboration with the Networking and Mentoring Core and relevant consortia, pilot project ideas and results will be communicated to key stakeholders, decision-makers, and business leaders with potential to promote the development of products and move them to practice. Pilot investigators will be fully integrated into all activities as described in Technology Identification and Training Core (TITC) and Networking and Mentoring core (NMC) through all phases of research and will have access to technical, environmental, and scientific resources available in this AITC.
