PROJECT SUMMARY: Networking & Mentoring Core Within the Massachusetts AI and Technology Center for Connected Care in Aging and Alzheimer's Disease (MAITC), the activities of the Networking and Mentoring Core will foster the development of high-impact project pilot teams, a research community dedicated to the MAITC’s goals and the next generation of individuals inspired to work at the intersection of AI, technology, Aging and AD/ADRD care. All networking and mentoring activities will be structured to help nurture the development of researchers from underrepresented minorities; underrepresented genders in their fields; people with disabilities; and those from socially, culturally, economically, or educationally disadvantaged backgrounds. In support of these goals, the Networking and Mentoring Core has three aims. The first aim is to establish and grow a multidisciplinary network of researchers and practitioners using AI-enhanced technologies to support Healthy Aging and AD/ADRD care. The Networking and Mentoring Core will play an integral role in forming and supporting a multidisciplinary community with national scope connecting stakeholders (older adults, lay caregivers, and clinicians, health systems and service providers), technology-focused and clinical researchers, industry partners, investors, the NIA Small Business Office and others working to advance the goals of developing, translating, validating and deploying emerging AI-enabled technologies to support healthy aging and AD/ADRD care. Activities will include numerous multidisciplinary networking events, the development of a robust online community and directory of research expertise, technology showcase events, and supports for the creation of multidisciplinary pilot project teams. The Networking and Mentoring Core’s work will also focus on maintaining strong within-center and cross-center synergy to result in leadership, graduate students and trainees, and staff working cohesively toward the MAITC’s shared vision of supporting pilot project teams. The second aim is to provide technology, needs assessment, user assessment and technology deployment training for individuals interested in conducting work aligned with the MAITC’s goals so they have the knowledge and resources to conduct high-quality research and integrate technologies based on MAITC research into real- world settings. The Networking and Mentoring Core will also provide robust mentoring for pilot grant awardees, junior faculty, and students to inspire the next generation of investigators to pursue careers at the intersection of technology and health. The third aim is to provide thought leadership in MAITC’s focus areas via showcase videos, thematic whitepapers, journal special issues, and conference sessions which highlight successful application of AI-enabled technologies to support Healthy Aging and AD/ADRD care, as well as identify key gaps where there is significant stakeholder need but no viable technologies to address these needs, thereby catalyzing new areas of research.

项目摘要：网络和指导核心 在马萨诸塞州的AI和技术中心，衰老和阿尔茨海默氏病的连接护理中心 （MAITC），网络和指导核心的活动将促进高影响力项目的发展 飞行员团队，一个致力于MAITC目标和下一代个人的研究社区 受到启发，可以在AI，技术，衰老和AD/ADRD护理的交叉点工作。所有网络和心理 活动将是构成的，以帮助护理来自代表性不足少数民族的研究人员的发展； 在他们的领域代表性不足；残疾人；以及从社会上，文化上的人 在经济或教育上处于不利地位的背景。 为了支持这些目标，网络和指导核心具有三个目标。第一个目的是建立和 使用AI增强技术来建立一个多学科的研究人员和从业人员 健康的衰老和广告/ADRD护理。网络和指导核心将在形成中发挥不可或缺的作用 并通过国家范围连接利益相关者（老年人 护理人员，临床医生，卫生系统和服务提供商，以技术为中心和临床研究人员， 行业合作伙伴，投资者，NIA小​​型企业办公室和其他旨在促进目标的人 开发，翻译，验证和部署新兴的AI支持技术以支持健康的衰老 和AD/ADRD护理。活动将包括许多多学科网络活动，开发 强大的在线社区和研究专业知识目录，技术展示活动和支持 创建多学科试点项目团队。网络和指导核心的工作也将集中 保持强大的中心和跨中心协同作用，从而导致领导力，研究生和 受训者和员工在MAITC共同支持飞行员项目团队方面的共同愿景。这 第二个目的是提供技术，需求评估，用户评估和技术部署培训 对于有兴趣进行与MAITC目标保持一致的工作的个人，他们有知识和 基于MAITC研究进行实地研究和集成技术的资源 世界环境。网络和指导核心还将为飞行员赠款获奖者提供强大的心理， 初级教师和学生激发下一代调查人员在十字路口从事职业 技术与健康。第三个目的是通过展示在MAITC的焦点领域提供思想领导 视频，主题白皮书，期刊特殊问题和会议会议突出显示成功 应用AI支持的技术来支持健康的衰老和AD/ADRD护理，并确定关键 存在很大的利益相关者需要的空白，但没有可行的技术来满足这些需求 催化新的研究领域。
