Emerging Tests, Tools, and Interventions

NYU Rory Meyers College of Nursing researchers are developing innovative technologies, scientific tools, and approaches to care that are transforming how we understand, prevent, and treat disease. Their work harnesses artificial intelligence, digital health, biomolecular discoveries, and precision health strategies to improve prediction, personalize interventions, strengthen healthcare delivery, and advance health equity.

Leveraging AI and Advancing Digital and Precision Health Solutions

NYU Meyers faculty are building AI chatbots, mobile apps, and predictive tools that extend personalized care beyond the clinic, from dementia caregiving and sleep health to reproductive health and preterm birth prevention. Co-designed with the communities they serve, these tools aim to make evidence-based care more accessible for groups historically underserved by digital health.

Precision Tools, Tests, and Technologies

From open-source genetics software to blood-based markers of circadian timing, biological aging, and depression, NYU Meyers researchers are developing tools that detect risk earlier and explain why health outcomes differ. This work links molecular discovery to patients' lived experience to advance precision health for the communities most affected.

Innovative Approaches to Care

NYU Meyers faculty are designing and testing nurse-led, community-partnered models of care, from couples-based HIV prevention and culturally tailored diabetes education to better hospice transitions and dementia care in assisted living and nursing homes. Their work generates evidence that shapes both bedside practice and health policy.
