BRITE Institute

BRITE Institute helps ensure artificial intelligence improves healthcare—rather than introducing new risks. We work across the healthcare ecosystem to translate cutting-edge research into practical, safety-focused solutions. For AI developers, we provide expert guidance on designing, testing, and deploying systems in high-risk clinical environments. Our work focuses on identifying hidden failure modes, strengthening human–AI interaction, and embedding safety into product development from the outset. For hospitals and health systems, we support the safe acquisition and implementation of AI tools. This includes evaluating vendor claims, assessing real-world performance, identifying operational risks, and ensuring new technologies integrate safely into clinical workflows. For patients, we develop clear, accessible guidance to help individuals understand and safely engage with AI in their care—empowering them to ask the right questions and avoid preventable harm. Across all areas, our
