CREATE WISDOM
Addressing Wicked Problems in Healthcare through Informatics, Engineering, Data Science and Medicine
Addressing Wicked Problems in Healthcare through Informatics, Engineering, Data Science and Medicine
The CREATE WISDOM team will discover and launch a new generation of technologies that will significantly enhance healthcare while creating opportunities for economic growth, leverage corporate relationships, and pursue multidisciplinary funding opportunities.
We plan to achieve this vision by building an AI Center in Medicine in Chicago that focuses on vulnerable populations and addressing wicked problems.

Dr. Karl Kochendorfer, assistant vice chancellor for health affairs and chief health information officer at UIC and associate professor of clinical family medicine at College of Medicine, will co-lead the CREATE WISDOM initiative, which will use data from regional health systems to develop artificial intelligence technologies to improve patient outcomes, starting with COVID among underserved populations, but quickly expanding to other conditions and disease states. Ravishankar Iyer, from the UIUC Grainger College of Engineering, will co-lead the project.
