What is AIbids?
Artificial Intelligence Biomedical Informatics and Data Science (AIBIDS) is a full-time 10-week authentic research internship for students interested in Biomedical Informatics and Data Science. The program pairs students with a mentor (faculty member or trainee) at either the University of Pittsburgh or Gallaudet University.
Upon accepted into the program, you will receive stipend and free housing and are expected to learn some of these skills.
Data Handling in Python or R: Clean, organize, and process real-world healthcare and biological data (like health records or genetic sequences) and use standard data science packages to run analyses.
Data Visualization: Create clear charts, graphs, and plots to explain complex findings to mentors and peers.
Critical Evaluation & Fact-Checking: Verify AI-generated code, statistical recommendations, and scientific claims against established literature and raw data, avoiding hallucinations or unvetted assumptions.
Health Data Ethics: Understand patient privacy rules (like HIPAA) and learn how to identify bias in clinical AI tools.
Research Communication: Summarize findings into a scientific abstract, slides, and a final symposium poster presentation.
