We are thrilled to share that the ETA Team within Enterprise Technology played a role in helping UT Austin be soon awarded with a $4M grant to research cancer! 

A special thanks to Alex Knox who has done some truly novel and great work in this area helping out Dr. K and her great vision.

Over the past several years, the ETA Team has established a great working partnership with Dr. Kowalski-Muegge, Ph.D. who is a professor of oncology in the Department of Oncology in Dell Medical School. She had a vision on how to use Generative AI with high aspirations of changing how cancer research is done. We are thrilled that Dr. K was able to secure such a grant to support her passion and the ETA Team is thrilled to be part of this potentially ground breaking new work.  

The focus is on developing an AI-enabled digital learning companion for protein-targetable cancer phenotypes. This opportunity signifies a big step towards advancing protein precision oncology.
