This order directs the MAHA Commission, in coordination with the
Secretary of HHS, the Assistant to the President for Science and
Technology (APST), and the Special Advisor for AI and Crypto to
develop innovative ways to utilize advanced technologies such as AI
to unlock improved diagnoses, treatments, cures, and prevention
strategies for pediatric cancer. The initial focus will be to
identify opportunities to accelerate the progress of AI-driven
solutions at the Childhood Cancer Data Initiative (CCDI) and fund
research projects at National Cancer Institute-Designated Cancer
Centers that utilize and incorporate AI in their research and
analysis.
The order calls for increased investment and engagement in
pediatric cancer care and research from both the public and private
sector. The order requires that the Secretary of HHS and the ASPT
ensure that AI innovation is integrated into current work on
interoperability.
