Approach
We support research and initiatives in computational biology, artificial intelligence, global health, and science communication that aim to drive advances in human health.
With the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence and the proliferation of large biological datasets, we have an opportunity to impact human health on a massive scale.
Through philanthropic giving we aim to close the gap between science and global impact.
Our funding efforts are centered on research and initiatives that promise to increase quality healthcare and access at the scale of millions to billions of people, as well as promoting science dissemination, literacy, and participation.
Computational Biology
Computational biology bridges biology, big data, and computer science, using computational tools to analyze vast amounts of biological and clinical information more quickly and cost-effectively than ever before. It has the potential to transform the study, prevention, and treatment of diseases by enhancing scientists' ability to interpret data at scale, deepening our understanding of fundamental biological mechanisms, advancing translational research, and improving clinical care for better patient outcomes.
Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence (AI) encompasses the development of systems and algorithms designed to perform various tasks, such as making predictions and solving problems. By mimicking human intelligence, AI processes data, learns from experience, and improves decision-making over time. AI has the potential to revolutionize healthcare by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, improving access and treatment outcomes, optimizing operations, and empowering patients to proactively manage their health and well-being.
Global Health Initiatives
Global health initiatives at the intersection of technology and public health drive innovation in disease prevention, healthcare delivery, and health equity on a global scale. By giving to global health organizations that sit at these crossroads and who align with our mission, we hope to power the development of technological solutions that improve access to care, enhance data-driven decision-making, and address urgent health challenges, particularly in underserved populations.
Science Communication
Science communication is the practice of sharing scientific knowledge with diverse audiences, from the general public to experts, in ways that promote understanding, engagement, and informed decision-making. We support high-quality science communication that offers balanced perspectives on new technologies, sparks conversations, combats misinformation, and makes information widely accessible.
