Jump ARCHES grant awards address medical misinformation, health equity and other significant health care challenges

Jump ARCHES research and development program awarded nearly $1.8 million in funding across 16 projects to address a variety of medical challenges. Many of the grant awards address issues dominating the news, including health care inequity, misinformation on social media, and the need for earlier detection of anxiety and viruses for improved treatment.

“These projects leverage the strengths of OSF HealthCare and our academic partners who are committed to practical solutions that can be deployed throughout health care to make a difference in early diagnosis, personalized treatment and disease prevention,” according to John Vozenilek, MD, vice president/chief medical officer, OSF Innovation & Digital Health.
