Morgan State University Receives $520,000 Grant for Biomedical AI Research
Morgan State University has been awarded a four-year, $520,000 grant from the National Institutes of Health for the ORBIL-AI project, which aims to improve the processing of biomedical data by artificial intelligence.
Morgan State University has received $520,000 in research funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to ensure that biomedical information is processed more efficiently and reliably by artificial intelligence systems.
The funding, provided through the National Library of Medicine (NLM), will support the ORBIL-AI (Orthogonality-Regularized Biomedical Information Theoretical Learning) project, which began on September 10, 2026, and will run until July 31, 2030. Led by Dr. Timothy Oladunni from the Department of Computer Science, the study focuses on the necessity of integrating complex biomedical data without redundant repetitions.
Funded under the NIH's Support for Research Excellence (SuRE) R16 program, the project aims to improve the interpretability and reliability of systems by developing the mathematical and computational principles of biomedical artificial intelligence systems.
