Center for SMART Health

The UCLA Center for Systematic, Measurable, Actionable, Resilient, and Technology-driven (SMART) Health is a campus-wide collaborative that looks to the integrated transformation of healthcare through emergent data and technologies. SMART is a joint effort between the Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI), the Institute for Precision Health (IPH), and the B. John Garrick Institute for the Risk Sciences that brings together UCLA’s experts to shape how digital and data-driven healthcare technologies will help to manage risk, reliability, resilience, uncertainty, and precision in future biomedical research and clinical care.

The goals of the Center are: (1) to enable team science around digital healthcare technologies through high impact projects, addressing the technical development, validation, and demonstrated translation of ideas into real-world tools; as well as the clinical, social, and economic policy implications surrounding such methods; (2) to support interdisciplinary education and training for the next generation of researchers interested in bio-medical data science and its application; and (3) to catalyze partnerships with industry and NGOs around new healthcare technologies, including coordinated opportunities for testbed development; platform incubation and evaluation; and dissemination.
