Addressing an Urgent Need

应对紧急需求

The push for greater AI integration is backed by overwhelming support from healthcare professionals. A survey conducted by Johnson & Johnson MedTech this year found that nearly 95% of respondents advocate for more AI in their daily healthcare practices. Surgeons and researchers recognize the immense potential but often face significant barriers in bringing their innovations to patients..

医疗保健专业人士的压倒性支持推动了更深入的人工智能整合。强生医疗科技公司今年进行的一项调查发现，近 95% 的受访者支持在日常医疗实践中增加人工智能的应用。外科医生和研究人员认识到其巨大的潜力，但往往在将创新成果带给患者时面临重大障碍。

Polyphonic™ AI Fund for Surgery: An Open Call for Innovation

Polyphonic™ AI外科基金：创新公开征集

To kickstart the initiative, the fund will leverage Johnson & Johnson’s well-established QuickFire Challenge program. This global platform will solicit submissions from a wide range of innovators, including academic institutions, researchers, startups, and established companies. Selected awardees will receive grant funding and, crucially, gain access to the immense resources and expertise of the coalition..

为了启动这一倡议，该基金将利用强生公司已建立的QuickFire挑战计划。这个全球平台将征集来自各类创新者的投稿，包括学术机构、研究人员、初创公司和知名企业。获选者将获得资助，并且至关重要的是，能够获取联盟的庞大资源和专业知识。

This includes mentorship and developer workshops featuring technologies from Johnson & Johnson MedTech, NVIDIA’s world-class AI infrastructure, and AWS’s leading cloud services, creating a fertile ecosystem for surgical AI development.

这包括来自强生医疗科技、NVIDIA世界一流的AI基础设施和AWS领先的云服务的技术指导和开发者研讨会，为外科AI开发创造了一个良好的生态系统。

The Polyphonic AI Fund for Surgery

多声部人工智能外科手术基金

is the next logical step in a collaboration that began last year between Johnson & Johnson MedTech and NVIDIA. That initial partnership established the Polyphonic Digital Ecosystem, a platform designed to securely analyze surgical data in real-time.

这是强生医疗科技与NVIDIA之间始于去年的合作的下一个合理步骤。最初的合作伙伴关系建立了多音数字生态系统，该平台旨在实时安全地分析手术数据。

The new fund deepens this alliance, aiming to solve key hurdles in surgical AI, such as ensuring data privacy, accelerating surgical learning, automating the enrichment of surgical data, and improving R&D efficiency. Johnson & Johnson MedTech is focused on creating high-quality, AI-annotated data sets and a governance framework to facilitate collaborative and responsible AI development.

新基金加深了这一联盟，旨在解决外科手术AI领域的关键障碍，如确保数据隐私、加速外科手术学习、实现手术数据富集自动化以及提高研发效率。强生医疗科技专注于创建高质量、AI注释的数据集和治理框架，以促进协作且负责任的AI开发。

This effort is powered by NVIDIA’s purpose-built platforms, including the NVIDIA IGX edge computing platform and NVIDIA Holoscan, which are designed to speed the creation and deployment of AI applications in a secure, scalable manner..

这一努力得益于 NVIDIA 量身打造的平台，包括 NVIDIA IGX 边缘计算平台和 NVIDIA Holoscan，这些平台旨在以安全、可扩展的方式加速 AI 应用程序的创建和部署。
