Very excited to announce that we were successfully awarded $217K SPHERE Seed Funding Grant for Project AI-ED: Using artificial intelligence to promote integrated care quality for older people by reducing preventable emergency department presentations 🏥🚑

Our Big Idea💡 📌Provide the right care at the right time in the right place for older people - which may not be the emergency department 📌Enable older people to be cared for outside the hospital by promoting early intervention that integrates primary and community care

📢SPHERE grant awarded to A/Prof Genevieve Steiner-Lim and team! They will use AI to support older people to be safely and well-cared for in the community by reducing preventable presentations to the hospital emergency department 🚑🏥🩺 Thread below on what this exciting project will do!👇

Congratulations to AAA CAG & SPHERE researchers who have been awarded $217K Seed Funding. Project AI-ED aims to enable older people to remain independent and diminish deterioration by providing the right care at the right time in the right place - which may not be the ED🏥

Attended the Westmead Research & Innovation Conference 2023 over the past 2 days, and had the opportunity to present my (first ever) poster. My research looked at #gutmetabolites and how they impact #breastcancer growth 🧫🔬 #WestmeadCon2023 Dr Deep Jyoti Bhuyan

My first research paper based on my MRes thesis 🥳 This paper looked at the mechanistic action of #gutmetabolites against #breastcancer cells. I am so beyond proud of this work. Thank you Dr Deep Jyoti Bhuyan for your constant support and guidance 🙏🏻 protect-au.mimecast.com/s/_G0UCE8wnyCq…

📢 Significant development in mild cognitive impairment Our #clinicaltrial showed 12-weeks SLT enhanced cognition in older people with #MCI 📌 Improved verbal #memory retrieval 📌 Increased executive function 📌 Well tolerated Full paper out now 👇🏽 alz-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Thanks for funding Project AI-ED! We'll be using AI to help keep older people out of the emergency department when they can be better cared for in the community. Right care. Right place. Right time. #aging #research SPHERE Age and Ageing CAG
