项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY: Technology Identification & Training Core Within the Massachusetts AI and Technology Center for Connected Care in Aging and Alzheimer's Disease (MAITC), the activities of the Technology Identification and Training Core will play a critical role in ensuring that the Center invests in innovative technologies with the greatest potential to address the most critical needs of patients, lay caregivers, and clinicians in supporting healthy aging and AD/ADRD care. In addition, this core will make significant contributions to educating a new generation of investigators capable of bridging the gap between AI-enhanced technology and aging and AD/ADRD care. To achieve these objectives, the Technology Identification and Training Core will pursue four aims. First, the Technology Identification and Training Core will conduct a rigorous, two-part technology identification process that determines what emerging AI-enhanced technologies have the potential to address the needs of stakeholders (i.e., older adults, lay caregivers, and clinicians) and performs initial technology assessments with these stakeholders to determine if the technologies are suitable for incorporation into pilot studies. Second, the Technology Identification and Training Core will assist investigators in selecting the most appropriate AI- enhanced technologies and in optimizing their deployment in pilot projects. The Technology Identification and Training Core will also help pilot project investigators maximize the impact of their research by identifying open areas for the development of new technologies. Third, the Technology Identification and Training Core will provide training to technology developers, clinicians, and other stakeholders about the potential of available and emerging AI-enhanced technologies to support Healthy Aging and AD/ADRD care. Fourth, the Technology Identification and Training Core will support, in coordination with other cores, a plan to broadly disseminate MIATC findings that includes issuing whitepapers describing the findings produced by the technology identification process, building and maintaining an online community of individuals interested in the work of the MIATC, and organizing multidisciplinary workshops at major technology conferences. We expect the work of the Technology Identification and Training Core to contribute to an innovative high-impact pilot project program that will positively affect stakeholders, technologists, clinicians, and industry partners.

项目摘要：技术识别和培训核心马萨诸塞州老龄化和阿尔茨海默病互联护理人工智能和技术中心（MAITC），技术识别和培训核心的活动将在确保该中心投资于最具潜力的创新技术，以满足最关键的需求患者、非专业护理人员和临床医生支持健康老龄化和 AD/ADRD 护理。另外，这个核心将为培养能够弥合差距的新一代研究人员做出重大贡献人工智能增强技术与老龄化和 AD/ADRD 护理之间的关系。为了实现这些目标，技术识别和培训核心将追求四个目标。首先，技术鉴定和培训核心将进行严格的、由两部分组成的技术鉴定过程这决定了哪些新兴的人工智能增强技术有潜力满足人们的需求利益相关者（即老年人、非专业护理人员和临床医生）并与这些利益相关者确定这些技术是否适合纳入试点研究。其次，技术识别和培训核心将协助研究人员选择最合适的人工智能增强技术并优化其在试点项目中的部署。技术鉴定和培训核心还将通过识别开放项目来帮助试点项目研究人员最大限度地发挥其研究的影响新技术开发领域。第三，技术鉴定和培训核心将为技术开发人员、临床医生和其他利益相关者提供有关可用技术潜力的培训以及支持健康老龄化和 AD/ADRD 护理的新兴人工智能增强技术。四、技术识别和培训核心将与其他核心协调，支持一项广泛传播信息的计划 MIATC 调查结果，包括发布描述该技术产生的调查结果的白皮书识别过程，建立和维护对工作感兴趣的个人的在线社区 MIATC，并在主要技术会议上组织多学科研讨会。我们期望的工作技术识别和培训核心，为创新的高影响力试点项目计划做出贡献这将对利益相关者、技术人员、临床医生和行业合作伙伴产生积极影响。
