AI Modeling and Solutions (AIMS Unit)

The AIMS Unit serves as the operational engine of the Center for Artificial Intelligence Research, turning innovative clinical ideas into deployable, real‑world AI solutions that enhance patient care and hospital efficiency.By partnering closely with clinicians, AIMS bridges the gap between academic discovery and practical delivery—providing the AI engineering expertise, GPU infrastructure, and robust governance needed to transform raw data into deployed, high‑impact clinical tools. Guided by the Quintuple Aim, the unit focuses on projects that improve outcomes, reduce costs, enhance experiences, and advance medical education across the health system.

Why We Exist

While academic research focuses on discovery , the AIMS Unit focuses on delivery . We solve the "implementation gap" in healthcare AI by providing the engineering talent, GPU infrastructure, and governance required to take an idea from a pilot model to a fully deployed clinical tool.

Mission and Vision

Strategic Alignment: The Quintuple Aim

We prioritize projects that drive measurable value in five key areas:

Population Health: Reducing risk at scale.
Cost of Care: Reducing waste and inefficiency.
Patient Experience: Improving access and safety.
Provider Experience: Reducing burnout and cognitive load.
Medical Education: Training the next generation with AI simulation.

Core Capabilities

Predictive Analytics

Risk stratification and early warning systems (e.g., Sepsis, Hypokalemia, Readmissions).

Computer Vision

Automated analysis of Radiology (CT/MRI), Pathology slides, and Clinical images.

Natural Language Processing (NLP)

Extracting insights from unstructured clinical notes and discharge summaries.

Operational Optimization

AI agents to smooth surgical scheduling, bed management, and transfer logistics.

AI for Education

Generative AI simulators for difficult patient conversations and resident training.
