CHAI's mission is to improve human health and medical research through innovations in the capture, analysis, and delivery of data to healthcare stakeholders.

The Center has four key goals:

• The creation of a harmonized health data ecosystem across different data types including structured, unstructured, on-body, genomic, and patient reported data
• The creation and adoption of standardized open source platforms for health analytics, incorporating advanced machine learning, natural language processing, sensors, and deep phenotyping
• The promotion and development of health interoperability protocols such as FHIR and OHDSI
• The application of user experience design and evaluation to evaluate the effectiveness of data-driven healthcare intervention
