OpenAI Foundation gave UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center $40 million. The grant funds data generation for personalized cancer vaccines. Researchers will gather deidentified tumor and immune cell data. They will train AI models to identify cancer cell targets. Clinical trials will compare vaccine formulations for triple-negative breast cancer. The work aims to create a public, multimodal dataset. The dataset should help enable rapid personalized cancer vaccines at diagnosis. The grant is part of a $125 million Public Data for Health program.
