Ailani Myers Accelerating Innovation in Medicine to Cure Kids with Cancer Act

This bill would require the President to name a federal official or office as the Coordinator of AI Innovation to coordinate federal agencies' use of advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence, for pediatric cancer diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and cures. It would direct the National Cancer Institute to run the Childhood Cancer Data Initiative, which collects and shares data on people diagnosed with cancer as children, adolescents, or young adults, and to support artificial intelligence research using that data. The Department of Health and Human Services would have to finalize standards within 2 years for sharing patient data used with artificial intelligence and send reports to Congress. The bill authorizes $100 million per year for fiscal years 2027 through 2031 for the data initiative, plus other funding as needed.
