Winners of this challenge will be invited to a Winners Circle Demo Day to virtually demonstrate their solutions in real-time to project stakeholders.<\/p>\n<p>Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI\/ML) has revolutionized the speed at which data can be consumed to improve decision-making. However, the AI algorithms themselves must be examined to ensure they are not introducing or perpetuating bias in healthcare decision making. Healthcare professionals need to know the tools they are using are trustworthy, safe and beneficial. They must also learn how and when these tools should be used, monitored, and updated to continually guard against new sources of bias.
