The Vijayalakshmi Innovation Center in Women’s Health Analytics and Research (VIHAR) housed in the School of Medicine’s Department of Biomedical Informatics, was established by the University of Pittsburgh Health Sciences in December 2024. VIHAR will develop the World's First Female Digital Health Twin with "co-labs" around the world and cross-sector partnerships. VIHAR will conduct world-class research and training that empowers females of all ages across the world to take charge of their own health and well-being in collaboration with AI, health care technology and systems. VIHAR's vision is to become the world’s premier innovation center of knowledge and practice in evidence-based girls and women’s integrated health and wellness across the life span.
