Washington, D.C.-based Children’s National Hospital has introduced a pediatric AI innovation hub to translate the technology from concept to bedside use.
The partnership with Blacksburg-based Virginia Tech will bring together pediatric clinicians, biomedical researchers and AI specialists to create advancements for what has been an underserved community thus far in the technology’s evolution.
“Children have historically been underrepresented in AI research despite having fundamentally different physiology, disease patterns and developmental needs,” said Marius George Linguraru, director of AI research at Children’s National, in a June 2 news release. “We have an opportunity to build pediatric AI the right way from the beginning by developing and validating these technologies specifically for children and within pediatric clinical settings.”
The Children’s National Research & Innovation campus operates on a nearly 12-acre site at the former Walter Reed Army Medical Center.
