Description of Collaborative Activity: |
IMAG is comprised of program directors from over 10 government agencies including the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the National Science Foundation (NSF), Department of Energy (DOE), Department of Defense (DOD), the Department of Agriculture (USDA), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the Department of Veterans Administration (VA), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA). The purpose of IMAG is to bring together program officers who have a shared interest in supporting modeling and analysis methods in biomedical, biological, and behavioral systems. IMAG has promoted and supported a wide variety of modeling, notably multi-scale modeling (MSM) through agency-specific funding opportunity announcements. IMAG also holds consortium meetings annually. . Following the Fall 2019 meeting, two papers were published because of discussions at that meeting:
• Review article published Feb. 18, 2020 in the Archives of Computational Methods in Engineering.
• Meeting perspective paper published Nov. 25, 1019 in NPJ Digital Medicine based on an Oct. 24, 2019 ML-MSM meeting.
The MSM held its 13th annual workshop virtually in March 2019 with the theme: Amplifying Impact by Nurturing Diversity. |
