An Innovate UK grant is helping a leading Lincolnshire clinic to explore advanced applications of AI in the treatment of musculoskeletal conditions.
MSK Doctors has won a UK government grant through the Knowledge Transfer Partnership scheme, a program managed by Innovate UK. In partnership with the University of Lincoln, MSK Doctors has access to more resources to apply cutting-edge computer vision and machine learning technologies for the treatment and management of a wide range of orthopaedic conditions.
What Does This Mean?
The grant will be used to advance medical innovation in the treatment and management of musculoskeletal conditions using cutting-edge developments in AI. A focal point for the project will be the development of AI algorithms to predict a set of biometrics for accurate diagnosis and assessment, with application in automated MRI image interpretation and motion analysis.
The Team
Founding Medical Director Paul Y. F. Lee will be leading the project and is excited to have the support of Innovate UK for its cutting-edge research. Part of the ENRICH-MSK partnership with the University of Lincoln, MSK Doctors has scored over 80% in the highly competitive government grant - and has now created highly-skilled job opportunities for artificial intelligence and advanced computer deep learning experts.
New High-Skilled Job Opportunities
With the partnership offering new work opportunities for leading specialists in Lincolnshire, the joint effort has resulted in benefits for both advanced research and sustainable community development in the area.
