Data, AI, Design Core
Combines data science, artificial intelligence, rigorous methods, and human-centered design to strengthen study development, analysis, and translation.

Our three research cores connect investigators with specialized expertise in data and AI, human-centered design, community and clinical engagement, behavioral science, and regional technology. Together, they provide consultation, methods, and resources to strengthen diabetes translation research from idea to impact.
Three integrated research cores
GCDTR’s three research cores bring together complementary expertise in data and AI, human-centered design, community and clinical engagement, behavioral science, and regional technology translation. Investigators can engage a single core or draw on multiple cores to build the right team for their research question.
Combines data science, artificial intelligence, rigorous methods, and human-centered design to strengthen study development, analysis, and translation.
Connects investigators with community and clinical partners while integrating behavioral science to design research that is relevant, feasible, and positioned for real-world use.
Extends GCDTR’s technology expertise across the regional network, connecting investigators with engineering, digital health, diabetes technology, and implementation capabilities.
Cross-core support
GCDTR can connect investigators with the right expertise and assemble cross-core support when a project spans multiple methodological, clinical, community, or technology needs.
