The University of Sheffield is a world-class research institution where 99% of the research was rated in the highest two categories (4 and 3) in REF 2021. This project focuses on AI for equitable healthcare—areas of active interest and investment at the University. Sheffield has a supportive research environment and infrastructure, bolstered by a recent £3.8 million investment in the Centre for Machine Intelligence (CMI) and £1.8 million in Data Connect; as well as several existing healthcare-centred research institutions at Sheffield, including the Insigneo Institute, the Healthy Lifespan Institute (HELSI), Sheffield Centre for Health and Related Research (ScHARR) and the EPSRC South Yorkshire Digital Health Hub where various network events will be held to enable the collaboration with clinical researchers from local hospitals, which is quite essential for its impact in clinical practice. Additionally, the multi-modal AI community workshop is held at Sheffield annually, supported by the Alan Turing Institute, which is an ideal venue for knowledge exchange.
