AI models learn best from large, diverse datasets. But cancer data from different institutions cannot simply be combined, due to privacy and regulatory protections. The question is: how do we train AI on the shared knowledge of top cancer centers without exposing sensitive patient information?

Each patient's care generates valuable data—every test, scan, and treatment tells part of the story. This information is protected by strict privacy rules and kept within each institution. While necessary, these safeguards can make collaboration harder.

CAIA has been awarded the 2025 GeekWire Health Innovation of the Year, an honor that highlights the momentum and impact of our work to bring AI-driven innovation to the cancer research ecosystem.
