Qualitative Data Visualization and Infographic Illustrator |  Date posted: Nov 22, 2024

We are seeking a proficient Qualitative Data Visualization and Infographic Illustrator to create informative and well-designed visualizations from pre-prepared research results extracted through literature reviews. You will help us translate our research findings into a visually-appealing and word-based framework that can be understood by a broad spectrum of stakeholders.

ABOUT THE PROJECT

This position is part of an innovative, multi-year research initiative (https://b2ai-voice.org/) funded by the NIH’s Bridge2AI program, bringing together 30 co-investigators from 15 North American institutions to address the ethical, legal, and social implications (ELSI) of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into biomedicine. The research focuses on ethical data governance in voice AI and functional genomics, with the goal of establishing frameworks that ensure responsible, trustworthy, and accessible applications of AI in health.

As AI and machine learning (ML) gain prominence in precision health and voice-based technologies, they bring new opportunities as well as significant ethical challenges. This project aims to create governance structures to manage and protect voice data in biomedical contexts. These efforts include setting ethical standards for data security, privacy, consent, and equitable data access, especially for underserved communities.
