    A recent study by a team of researchers at Vanderbilt University found that response to radiation therapy for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC)—one of the most aggressive forms of the disease—may contribute to tumor recurrence. Marjan Rafat, Vanderbilt assistant professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering, explained that radiation therapy continues to be an important option for patients with TNBC because it can improve survival rates and regional control of the cancer. But in an immunosuppressed environment, radiation may increase cancer cell proliferation, said Rafat, who also holds appointments in the Departments of Biomedical Engineering and Radiation Oncology.

  • Todd Giorgio, PhD, professor of Biomedical Engineering, and Jennifer Herington, PhD, assistant professor of Pediatrics and Pharmacology, joined forces four years ago to begin developing innovative uterine-targeted delivery systems for therapeutics known as tocolytics. They were recently awarded more than $3 million from the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H). The award is part of the Sprint for Women’s Health, an initiative to address critical unmet challenges in women’s health, champion transformative innovations and tackle health conditions that uniquely or disproportionately affect women. Every year, approximately 15 million pregnancies worldwide end prematurely, before 37 weeks of gestation. The United States has one of the highest rates of preterm births among high-resource countries, with 1 in every 10 women delivering prematurely. The estimated societal economic loss in the U.S. is approximately $25 billion, which includes medical costs, educational expenses and lost productivity. https://ow.ly/KHI750Uch7k

  • Abhishek Dubey, associate professor of computer science and electrical and computer engineering at Vanderbilt University, is leading a consortium comprised of several different universities and regional transit agencies that has received more than $8 million from the U.S. Department of Transportation to accelerate artificial intelligence-driven multimodal transit operations across Tennessee. The funding is part of more than $96.5 million in grants issued by DOT’s Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) to 16 states for 20 projects under the Advanced Transportation Technology and Innovation (ATTAIN) program. The grants are intended to fund technology-based and multimodal solutions that aim to improve travel on highway and transit systems nationwide, including in disadvantaged communities that have lacked investment and resources. In Tennessee, the funding will be used for the PATH-TN project, which stands for Partnership for AI-driven Multimodal Transportation Services Integration in Tennessee Cities. Targeting the state’s four largest cities – Memphis, Nashville, Chattanooga, and Knoxville – the project aims to address declining ridership, rising operational costs, labor shortages, limited coverage, infrequent service, and a lack of options for captive riders.

    Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer mortality in people living with HIV, the human immunodeficiency virus, with an incidence nearly three times higher than in those without HIV. Vanderbilt engineering professors and physicians from the Vanderbilt University Medical Center are using cutting-edge imaging and biomarker research to advance early detection methods and reduce mortality within the HIV group. The project, “Evaluation of Radiomic and Blood-Based Biomarkers for the Early Detection of Lung Cancer in People Living with HIV (Biospecimen/Cohort),” seeks to improve lung cancer outcomes by combining radiomic data from low-dose CT scans with blood-based biomarkers. By using machine learning models previously developed at Vanderbilt University, the team will assess their predictive power in real-world data from people living with HIV (PLWH). This award is a Cancer Center Support Grant as part of funding for principal investigator Ben Park, M.D., Ph.D., director of the Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center and Benjamin F. Byrd, Jr. Professor of Oncology. The new collaboration team includes Yuankai Huo, assistant professor of computer science; Bennett Landman, director of the Vanderbilt Lab for Immersive AI Translation (VALIANT : Vanderbilt Lab for Immersive AI Translation); Lung Screening Program Director Kim Sandler, M.D., professor of radiology and radiological services at the Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Eric Grogan, MD, MPH, associate professor of thoracic surgery, Stephen Deppen, PhD, associate professor of thoracic surgery and clinical epidemiologist, and Jessica Castilho, MD, MPH, associate professor of medicine and physician-scientist in infectious diseases at VUMC. “We’re excited to bring cutting-edge AI technologies into this space, where they can make a real difference for people at high risk of lung cancer,” said Landman, professor of electrical and computer engineering and professor of radiology and radiological sciences. “This project allows us to leverage our expertise in machine learning and radiomics to solve complex problems in health care.” Read more: https://ow.ly/NMIC50UagR1
