Details
The Center for Machine Learning & Health (CMLH) at Carnegie Mellon University was founded in 2015 under the umbrella of the Pittsburgh Health Data Alliance (PHDA), a collaboration between Carnegie Mellon University, The University of Pittsburgh, and UPMC. Our mission is to solicit and fund research projects that constitute great science and that have a clear line of sight to commercial application through IP licensing and start-up formation. CMLH projects center around three main focus areas: healthcare outcomes; consumer-oriented healthcare; and healthcare infrastructure and efficiencies. To date we have funded 26 early-stage research project, 30 student fellowships, and helped catalyze the formation of six local dig-health start-ups.
Event sponsored by the Heinz Healthcare Program.
