  • Evaluate AI and Generative AI tools for surveillance use cases such as event detection, case and outbreak summarization, information extraction, classification, trend identification, and evidence synthesis. 
  • Develop representative test scenarios and evaluation datasets using surveillance data, scientific literature, reports, and other relevant public health information. 
  • Assess AI outputs for scientific accuracy, completeness, relevance, consistency, hallucinations, bias, explain ability, and appropriate use of supporting evidence. 
  • Support validation of AI-assisted workflows that use structured and unstructured public health data, including laboratory, case, syndromic, genomic, environmental, and other surveillance information as applicable.
