The goal of this workshop is to explore and assess the landscape of ethical AI in the biomedical research context by gathering expert input on opportunities and challenges with respect to the ethical use and reuse of data and models in the Artificial Intelligence (AI) development cycle. This interactive workshop will:

Begin to develop transparency guidelines for NIH awardees using, developing, or contributing to AI.
Identify tools and capability gaps for ethical and transparent AI.
Identify trends and future states.

This workshop is convened by the NIH Office of Data Science Strategy (ODSS) and the NIH-wide AI Ethics Working Group. ODSS leads implementation of the NIH Strategic Plan for Data Science through scientific, technical, and operational collaboration with the institutes, centers, and offices that comprise NIH.
