Staque, a consulting and development practice in AI, quantum computing, and advanced technology solutions, has signed a MoU with Thumbay Group’s Gulf Medical University (GMU) and Thumbay College of Management and Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare (TCMAIH) for AI in healthcare, focusing on both academic innovation and practical applications.
The partnership aims to tackle critical challenges and unlock opportunities across healthcare and education, including AI-powered diagnostics for early disease detection; AI-driven systems to create personalised educational experiences for healthcare professionals and autonomous intelligence solutions to streamline administrative workflows, reduce inefficiences, and enhance the overall patient experience.
The collaboration includes a state-of-the-art lab, to be established at GMU’s campus, that will serve as a hub for cutting-edge research and practical applications of AI in healthcare, focusing on areas such as diagnostics, personalised medicine, and healthcare operations.
Among other areas of collaboration, Staque and GMU will furthermore develop fellowship, short-term, and long-term programs in healthcare AI; support joint research projects through the Thumbay International Research Grant, targeting high-impact areas in AI, quantum computing and healthcare.
