IIT Delhi professor Tanmoy Chakraborty announced TRUSTMAPS, a national center for measuring and assuring the trustworthiness, privacy, and security of medical AI systems, funded by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR). Led by IIT Delhi, it brings together AIIMS Delhi, IIT Kharagpur, Ashoka University, and Tata Medical Center, with 18 co-PIs across 5 institutes.
The center rests on four pillars: privacy & security for medical data, fairness & accountability to identify bias in AI-driven healthcare, interpretability & explainability for clinicians and patients, and uncertainty & hallucination evaluation to quantify reliability and flag harmful outputs.
Beyond building trustworthy models, TRUSTMAPS aims to establish India's first national certification ecosystem for medical AI — standardized benchmarks, trustworthiness scorecards, trust labels, and regulatory-ready assessment frameworks bridging the gap between research and safe clinical deployment.
