• Hear Dr. Yael Bensoussan discuss leading large NIH funded consortium: (Lots of) Lessons learned from the 1st year of the Bridge2AI program 

  The NIH Center for Interventional Oncology is hosting a Women Leaders in Academic Research/Empowerment of Under-represented Researchers (EUR) lecture series.

  The Bridge2AI program funded its firsts consortiums for data generation projects in 2022 with the goal of building large-scale multimodal databases that are ethically-sourced and AI-ready to fuel AI research. Gathering multi-disciplinary team science is not an easy task and many challenges in terms of social engineering need to be addressed and navigated to obtain tangible results. Dr. Bensoussan will share her experience in co-leading the Bridge2AI-Voice Consortium in its first year of funding and review “do's and don't’s” of Team Science.
