The USC Big Data in Biotransport Center has been established as a platform to generate a rich database of AI/ML/DL predictive models that can be translated clinically for early diagnostics, improved treatment and monitoring of diverse ocular disorders (e.g., AMD, glaucoma, dry eye, diabetic retinopathy). Advanced machine-learning algorithms will give physicians new tools to better care…
Center for Translational Research on Environmental Health aims to apply novel team-science approaches to address today’s key pressing environmental health issues and understand the risk factors that continue to drive obesity, type 2 diabetes, metabolic disease and cancer through translational research design.
At the University of Southern California, research in the space sciences is carried out by the Space Sciences Center and Department of Physics and Astronomy. Work at SSC involves both laboratory and space based investigations of photoabsorption and emission processes in atomic and molecular gasses in the spectral region from the extreme ultraviolet through the…
Recognizing the outstanding base of addiction experts at USC and that interdisciplinary collaboration among them had historically been underleveraged, IAS was launched in July 2018 under the leadership of Adam Leventhal (IAS Director, Preventive Medicine) and John Clapp (IAS Co-Director, Social Work) with 30 inaugural faculty members across 5 schools. Institute Startup was supported by…
