AI Center for Health Care

Establishing the AI Center for Health Care addresses as one of the activities in the lead project Artificial Intelligence the critical relevance of artificial intelligence in relation to health research. The intention aims at the cooperation of the member institutions and in particular at funding PhD students working in interdisciplinary and interorganisational projects.

In order to promote the growth of joint research projects in the field of AI and health care, the U Bremen Research Alliance tendered the funding of cooperative research projects in 2021 for the first time. The funds are provided by the Federal State of Bremen and awarded through the U Bremen Research Alliance.

The AI Center for Health Care comprises the following nine projects:

AI Surgery Tracking

The AI Center for Health Care project AI Surgery Tracking aims to help improve surgical care through robust and user-friendly support systems from the field of AI.

Participating institutions:
Fraunhofer MEVIS, Universität Bremen

IDEAL

The Intelligent Digital Guideline Editor project focuses on the development of a methodology to simplify the planning of efficient clinical studies using causal inference and adaptive statistical procedures and to be able to quickly integrate their results into existing guidelines using a digital guideline editor.

Participating institutions:
Fraunhofer MEVIS, Universität Bremen, Leibniz BIPS

KimBi

The project On the way to AI-supported intelligent magnetic resonance imaging aims to develop an application-oriented language for the development of imaging techniques in magnetic resonance imaging that enables the support of efficient machine learning processes and thus automatically selects the best possible imaging.

Participating institutions:
Universität Bremen, Fraunhofer MEVIS, DFKI

NAKO+ILSE

The aim of the AI Center for Health Care project NAKO+ILSE is to combine multimodal data from different studies to improve the prediction of the biological, immunological and cognitive age of individuals and to support the early detection of dementia.

Participating institutions:
Universität Bremen, Fraunhofer MEVIS, Leibniz BIPS, Universität Heidelberg (beratend)

NAKO-MNA

The NAKO-MNA project aims at the AI-based development of a multimodal implicit data model based on combined image data and complex tabular data from the NAKO health study. One application goal is the improved ability to sensitively detect deviations from the norm and previously undetected incidental findings.

Participating institutions:
Leibniz BIPS, Fraunhofer MEVIS, University of Bremen

PORTAL

The PORTAL project is researching AI-based optimization strategies for the laser additive manufacturing of endoprostheses. A forward model is to be developed in order to make statements about properties such as fatigue strength of the manufactured component in accordance with the intended use. A further aim is to develop a backward model in order to parameterize the manufacturing process precisely to the intended use.

Participating institutions:
Leibniz IWT, Universität Bremen

ENABLE

The aim of the AI Center for Health Care project ENABLE is to develop an antibacterial alloy that will help to reduce implant-associated infections.

Participating institutions:
Leibniz IWT, Universität Bremen

KIKI

The AI Center for Health Care project KIKI focuses on the advantageous structures of diatoms for the development of medical endoprostheses.

Participating institutions:
AWI, Leibniz IWT

MetaN

The aim of the project MetaN is to improve the efficiency of MR imaging through the use of flexible metamaterials that are dynamically optimized using artificial intelligence methods.

Participating institutions:
Universität Bremen, Fraunhofer IFAM, Fraunhofer MEVIS
