Applied Ethics Discussion Forums
As AI applications continue to transform clinical research and care practices, ensuring their trustworthiness is critical. A key component of trust is reproducibility. Dr. Fu will discuss the ethical and conceptual dimensions of reproducibility in the context of EHR-based AI applications. He will define the role of contextual metadata in the process of AI model development, evaluation, and dissemination, and illustrate his work on standardized frameworks, RITE-FAIR principles, and tools that promote AI reproducibility.

Community Health Workers (CHWs), or Promotores de Salud in Latino communities, help address health disparities by providing education and services to under-resourced populations. To strengthen their research skills, the "Building Research Integrity and Capacity" (BRIC) initiative offers eight training modules for self-paced learning or professional development. A complementary course was also created to help faculty better engage under-resourced communities in research. Dr. Nebeker will discuss the co-design and evaluation of these educational resources.
