Harvard Medical School’s ability to lead a transformation in medical education and health care through the innovative and responsible integration of artificial intelligence (AI) has now been amplified by a $6 million commitment from the Dunleavy Foundation.

The gift establishes the Dunleavy Fund for Clinical AI, which will be used to strengthen the School’s efforts to equip future researchers, policymakers, and innovators to harness AI to improve health care and medical science.
