PCORI Funding Town Hall: Newly Updated Methods
PCORI Funding Town Hall: Newly Updated Methods
April 6, 2026
Explore the Newly Updated Methods
PCORI Funding Announcement
PCORI will open several PCORI Funding Announcements (PFAs) April 1 for Letter of Intent (LOI) submission — including the newly updated Improving Methods for Conducting Patient-Centered Comparative Clinical Effectiveness Research (CER) PFA.
This PFA seeks to fund studies addressing important methodological gaps in patient-centered CER.
Within the Methods PFA, PCORI has identified four keyprogram priorities:
Methods to support the use of patient-centered measurement in patient-centered CER
Methods to support the use of real-world data in multisite patient-centered CER
Methods to improve the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning in patient-centered CER
Methods to improve study design in patient-centered CER
To support your LOI preparation, explore the published preannouncement and begin identifying potential collaborators for your research.
Make sure to register for the Applicant Town Hall taking place April 6 to learn more about this specific PFA.

April 6, 2026 @ 10:00 am - 2:00 pm
Artificial Intelligence and the Medical Record in the Context of Social Security Disability Evaluations: A Workshop
|
|
Join us for a workshop to examine how artificial intelligence is reshaping the medical record process and its implications for disability evaluation. This two-day event will be held on April 6 from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM (ET) and April 7 from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM (ET).

| Register now
In clinical settings, AI tools now support symptom assessment, imaging analysis, predictive diagnostics, and automated documentation, with the potential to improve efficiency, accuracy, and access to care. At the same time, these technologies are influencing how medical evidence is generated and presented in the medical record. Social Security disability evaluations rely on evidence presented in the medical record, raising important questions about data integrity, quality assurance, error reduction, and fraud prevention.
The National Academies will convene a two-day workshop to explore recent advances in AI as they pertain to medical care and the emerging use of AI systems and software that create, modify, edit, or otherwise interact with medical and health records. Presentations will examine how AI may affect the information contained in medical records received by SSA for disability determination in a variety of clinical settings.

PICO Portal webinar: Everything I Got Wrong When Introducing AI in Systematic Reviews
PICO Portal webinar: Everything I Got Wrong When Introducing AI in Systematic Reviews
April 8, 2026 @ 8:00 am - 9:00 am
This month, we’re hosting two webinars that explore different sides of AI in evidence synthesis: one focused on the realities of implementation, and one focused on how AI can support research workflows in practice.
Featured Webinar
Everything I Got Wrong When Introducing AI in Systematic Reviews
On Wednesday, April 8 at 11am ET, we’re hosting a 45-minute live webinar with Dr. Ley Muller.
About this Webinar
Everyone is being told to use AI - to move faster, reduce errors, and unlock new capabilities. But what happens when implementation doesn’t go as planned?
In this session, Ley will reflect on her experience building and leading the first AI team at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health, and unpack what she got wrong along the way. Most notably, she’ll explore the consequences of overlooking how AI implementation can redistribute power within organizations - and what others can learn from that experience.
Who You'll Hear From
• Dr. Ley Muller, AI governance specialist; former lead of the first AI team at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health
• Eitan Agai, CEO & Founder, PICO Portal
What You'll Learn
• What it looked like to build a dedicated AI innovation team during the COVID-19 pandemic
• What Ley got wrong, and what others can avoid when introducing AI
• How to better understand and work with resistance, hesitation, and other barriers to adoption
Date: Wednesday, April 8th
Time: 11:00am EDT (New York) /3pm GMT (UK)

Health Affairs: The Evolution of Medicare Advantage and the Market Implications
April 20, 2026 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
|
Join Health Affairs on April 20 for an exclusive Insider virtual event exploring the evolution of the Medicare Advantage market.
Become an Insider today to attend this event. |
|
The Medicare Advantage market once experienced large enrollment growth rates year-over-year. That growth has tempered in recent years. Last year, the Medicare Advantage enrollment experienced slower growth rates than previous years.
And, the Trump administration proposed a nearly flat payment increase for carriers for 2027, causing concern from the insurance industry. With some payers exiting the MA market, stakeholders must assess how the market is evolving and what it means for the broader health care industry.
Attendees will join an expert panel to learn about how the evolving the Medicare Advantage market will impacts payers, employers, and patients.
Moderated by Sachin Jain, president and CEO of the SCAN Health Plan, speakers included:
-
Grace Mackleby, USC Leonard D. Schaeffer Institute for Public Policy & Government Service
-
David Meyers, Brown University’s Center for Advancing Health Policy Through Research

Value Alignment & Incentive Divergence in Clinical AI
Value Alignment & Incentive Divergence in Clinical AI
April 22, 2026 @ 9:00 am - 11:00 am
| Join us for our next free virtual event, Sandra Zelman. A critical issue is coming into focus as AI becomes further embedded in clinical decision-making: different AI models consistently prioritize clinical decisions in unique ways—and those differences impact patients, clinicians, and organizations alike. |
| This panel discussion will examine how AI systems balance or often fail to balance the diverse healthcare incentives—from patient outcomes to reimbursement, resource constraints, and system-wide costs. |
| Our expert speakers will address: |
| • Challenges associated with the lack of information on the different actions and incentives of AI models
• Which techniques could better align AI models with a specific set of incentives
• Actions organizations can take to better assess AI alignment, performance and impact |
| Don't miss out on critical insights into one of the most urgent discussions in clinical AI. |

Webinar: Scalable Human iPSC-Derived Pancreatic Ductal Organoids for Translational Drug Evaluation
Webinar: Scalable Human iPSC-Derived Pancreatic Ductal Organoids for Translational Drug Evaluation
April 23, 2026 @ 8:00 am - 9:00 am
The FDA recently announced a plan for replacing animal testing requirements for monoclonal antibodies and other drugs with more effective, human-relevant models such as organoids. Organoids are three-dimensional, stem cell–derived systems that recapitulate key aspects of human tissue architecture and function, with rapid advances driving their adoption in translational research and drug development. Human iPSC–derived pancreatic duct-like organoids (PDLOs) offer a particularly compelling model for studying pancreatic ductal biology and evaluating emerging therapies.
In this webinar, we present a streamlined 30-day differentiation workflow and comprehensive characterization of PDLOs demonstrating high lineage purity, mature ductal identity, and functional CFTR activity. Using flow cytometry, capillary-based immunoassays, and immunofluorescence imaging, we show efficient progression through key developmental stages, yielding PDLOs composed of >90% KRT19⁺ ductal epithelial cells with organized, polarized architectures. Functional assays reveal robust, inhibitor-responsive CFTR-mediated swelling, supporting the use of PDLOs for testing gene replacement, gene editing, and other advanced therapeutic approaches.
We also highlight the advantages of Simple Western™ Technology in organoid research, where sample availability is often limited and assay reproducibility is paramount. Simple Western enables highly quantitative, automated protein size and identity analysis from organoid lysates, reducing hands-on time while improving data consistency across batches and differentiation runs. When paired with high quality reagents and standardized workflows, this scalable PDLO platform provides a robust, translational in vitro model for preclinical safety and efficacy evaluation in pancreatic ductal disorders.
