The a2 Collective represents the National Institute on Aging's (NIA) Artificial Intelligence and Technology Collaboratories for Aging Research (AITC) program -- which is dedicated to helping Americans live longer, better through the application of artificial intelligence and emerging technologies. The a2 Collective is comprised of three AITC Collaboratories centered at Johns Hopkins University, the University of Massachusetts, and the University of Pennsylvania.The a2 Collective hosts a $40M annual national pilot competition called the a2 Pilot Awards which seeks to fund transformative AI technology pilot projects that will improve the care and health outcomes for older Americans, including persons with Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementia (ADRD). Successful projects may be selected for multi-year commitments and be more competitive for follow-on Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) funding. Pilot awardees may also receive access to the study sites, data sets, and resources at each AITC as well as mentorship from industry and university experts, major healthcare systems, and venture capitalists. The application period for the inaugural a2 Pilot Awards will take place from Jan. 10, 2022 to Feb. 18, 2022. For details on how to apply, please visit a2PilotAwards.ai
