One year contract for licensing and developing a virtual simulation platform with Ai-driven avatars.

The purpose of this procurement is to license a platform that will allow for the development and administration of research studies that investigate clinical and communication-related processes in the context of genetics and genomics. The primary project will focus on development and implementation of the Genetic Literacy Virtual Assessment simulation environment. This will be achieved by formatting, developing, programming, and hosting a virtual simulation environment featuring AI-driven Virtual Human avatars representing simulated patients at varying levels of genetic literacy. Doing so will allow us to examine whether healthcare providers communicate differently about genetics and genetic testing during a simulated autism diagnostic encounter when provided with information about a patie
