U of A GenAI
UA-operated platform for various large language models, such as Gemini or ChatGPT, that can be used free of charge by UA-affiliated personnel. It is designed to support work with sensitive research data that should not be shared with external companies or used to train third-party AI models. Important: Do not upload Protected Health Information (PHI) to this tool.
Resources from the Office of Responsible Artificial Intelligence
AI Tools at U of A
The University of Arizona provides access to a growing suite of generative AI tools and guidance for responsible use. Explore U of A-supported tools vetted for academic use, with an emphasis on data privacy and responsible AI practices.
TriNetX
Research platform that provides access to de-identified clinical data from Banner/Cerner. Because the data are already de-identified, access may be faster than requesting data directly from the electronic health record (EHR), though the available data may be more limited than with direct EHR access.
