As part of Microsoft’s 50th anniversary celebrations, Microsoft AI for Good Lab launched an open call to support innovative AI-based projects in Washington state. An awardee in the category of health, IHME will receive Microsoft Azure credits and the ability to collaborate with AI for Good Lab scientists.
IHME plans to build a global cloud laboratory to examine health locally by using satellite imagery, AI, and spatial demography to predict risks like drought and food insecurity among specific populations. This project aims to put actionable, population-level health data into the hands of decision-makers to improve individuals’ health and well-being.
