Healey-Driscoll Administration Invests $555,000 in New Health AI Lab | MassTech Healey-Driscoll Administration Invests $555,000 in New Health AI Lab UMass Chan Medical School and MITRE to lead new R&D center to address health AI safeguards, support startup testing, and boost regional workforce training Innovation Institute at MassTech Collaborative WESTBOROUGH, Mass.
– The Healey-Driscoll Administration has awarded $555,000 to support the establishment of the Health AI Assurance Laboratory located at UMass Chan Medical School and run in partnership with Bedford-based MITRE Corporation.
The new lab will be supported through the Technology & Innovation Ecosystem Awards Program managed by the Innovation Institute at the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative, along with $137,000 in matching investments from the private sector. The lab will use cutting-edge tools to develop infrastructure and processes for the evaluation of AI-enabled solutions in the health domain.
Developers of AI-enabled solutions will bring their products to the Health AI Assurance Laboratory for assessment of its features and expected uses, helping to foster trustworthy and responsible use. The lab will contribute to emerging national standards for the evaluation of digital health technologies which can support commercial applications for healthcare innovators in the region.
The funds will also support the construction of physical spaces that will allow for collaboration, workforce training, and R&D focused on security infrastructure to ensure the safety of health AI products before they’re put into general use.
“We are committed to researching and developing health AI tools to strengthen our state’s leadership in healthcare,” said Secretary Yvonne Hao, Executive Office of Economic Development, co-chair of the state’s AI Strategic Taskforce .
“The new Health AI Assurance Laboratory is an incredible opportunity to grow the AI ecosystem by building strategic partnerships and providing career opportunities to students in data analysis, informatics, and machine learning.
Through the leadership of the world-class researchers at UMass Chan and MITRE, this new lab will help us build a stronger health AI industry in Massachusetts and accelerate responsible innovation for the global marketplace. ” “Given the immense potential of AI to transform everyday life, we want to be mindful of its overall impact.
” said Patrick Larkin, director, Innovation Institute at MassTech and a member of the AI Strategic Taskforce . “That means supporting investments that ultimately provide startups and established companies with the necessary tools, methods, processes, infrastructure, and a simulated real-world environment to develop and refine their AI-driven solutions in a controlled setting.
This will help promote safety and efficacy, while facilitating collaboration, data sharing, and the development of cutting-edge technologies that will further position Massachusetts as a global leader in health AI. We want to congratulate UMass Chan, MITRE, and their partners in building a strong foundation for future, emerging industries across the state.
” The Innovation Institute’s grant to support the Health AI Assurance Laboratory, aims to create workforce development opportunities for high school, undergraduate, and post-graduate (master’s, M. D. , and Ph.
D.) students looking to break into AI. With hands-on experience, these students will be able to hone specific skills for a future career in the field.
“UMass Chan, a national leader in research, continues to make great strides to change the course of history of disease. ” said Michael F. Collins, chancellor of UMass Chan Medical School .
“Together with MITRE and with support from the Innovation Institute at MassTech, current and future health care professionals will be able to create and guide AI technology to fulfill its promise of better, more efficient and more equitable patient care across our communities.
” “With support from MassTech, we’re excited to partner with the UMass Chan Medical School to launch the Health AI Assurance Lab,” said Doug Robbins, vice president at MITRE . “Having just opened MITRE’s national AI Assurance & Discovery Lab in northern Virginia, we look forward to sharing our AI assurance resources and expertise with the UMass team.
Connecting both labs will be the very first step in creating what we envision as a national network of AI assurance labs, and we celebrate the Bay State for being at the forefront of that movement.

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) announces up to $10 million to support a National Fund Manager (NFM) to design and manage a Lead-Safe and Healthy Homes Financing Demonstration (the Fund). The Fund will be a national platform to pool public and private capital to accelerate the reduction of residential lead exposure, particularly childhood lead poisoning, and improve housing-related health conditions in low-income communities ("lead-safe and healthy homes activities").While HUD and EPA programs have addressed lead and other environmental hazards in many homes, progress remains slow relative to the scale of need. For example, since 1993, HUD has remediated lead hazards in over 230,000 low-income housing units, but tens of millions of U.S. households continue to face risk from lead and additional residential environmental stressors. Expanding access to private capital alongside public funding is critical to increasing the pace and scale of remediation.Traditional home repair financing remains difficult to access due to strict underwriting, high denial rates, and lender risk concerns, leaving many older homes in disrepair. The Fund will build upon successful local models that combine public and private resources and expand this approach nationally by aggregating capital and supporting local financing programs.The NFM will be responsible for leveraging the initial $10 million in public funds to raise private capital investments, structuring financing mechanisms, and providing technical assistance to support the Fund's operations. The NFM will also be responsible for the distribution of the funds through eligible activities by using no more than $1 million of the federal award for administrative activities, while deploying the remaining capital through loans, grants, and other financial products that flow to state, regional, and local governments and nonprofit organizations selected by the NFM. The NFM will select and enter into agreements with organizations, which will in turn provide financing for conducting lead-safe and healthy homes activities in homes of low-income homeowners and homes owned by small landlords, in low-income communities. HUD will maintain oversight through review of Fund structure, performance, and compliance rather than by participating in investment selection decisions.The organizations selected for funding by the NFM will ensure that the financing conditions require use of appropriately qualified contractors, laboratories, and financial entities in accordance with applicable Federal, state, and local requirements and this NOFO. The NFM will establish and oversee compliance, reporting, and quality assurance processes to ensure that lead-safe and healthy homes activities are performed and financed in accordance with program requirements.

The goal of the Institutional Biomedical Undergraduate Research Training (BURT) program is to strengthen research training environments and develop a pool of well-trained students who:Complete their baccalaureate degrees in biomedically-related fields, andTransition into and complete biomedical, research-focused higher degree programs (such as Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D.).Specifically, this funding announcement provides support to eligible, domestic organizations to develop and implement effective, evidence-informed approaches to biomedical undergraduate training and mentoring to help build a strong biomedical research workforce for the nation.Applicant organizations must enroll undergraduate students and have received NIH Research Project Grant (RPG) funding averaging less than $50 million in total costs (direct and F&A/indirect) per year over the last three fiscal years (FY). To promote undergraduate research training opportunities across a range of eligible organizations, the program will accept applications in two tracks:Single Site: To support trainees from a single baccalaureate-degree granting organization.Community College Partnerships: To support community college trainee development through strong collaborations between at least one associate-degree granting organization (that is, a community college) and at least one baccalaureate-degree granting organization.The proposed research training programs will incorporate didactic, research, and career development elements to prepare trainees for careers that will have a significant impact on the health-related research needs of the nation.
