As part of the alliance between DePaul University and Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science
(RFUMS), we initiated an inter-institutional collaborative research grant program. Building on our shared commitment to innovation in healthcare,
the program focuses on high-impact projects that explore critical areas at the intersection of health, technology, and data science. The primary goal of this program is to
facilitate development of new inter-institutional collaborative research projects between DePaul and RFUMS
investigators that recognize the applications, opportunities, and transformational potential of AI in healthcare. Such
projects are expected to: i) result in high-impact peer-reviewed publications; ii) “seed” larger, long-term extramural
funding of new collaborative research between the two institutions, and iii) stimulate technology transfer and
commercialization arising from such collaborative research. Funds procured to support this effort will be awarded on
a competitive, peer-reviewed basis.
