What if you could slowly replace your brain with younger tissue? 🧠 Is this a sci-fi retelling of the Ship of Theseus or a serious approach to longevity? It’s the latter—at least according to radical brain researcher Jean Hébert. Hébert was recently hired by the Biden Administration for the U.S. Advanced Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H). There, he’s expected to work on furthering research on “functional brain tissue replacement” for longevity. Check out the article to see what we know about this project 👉 https://lnkd.in/d2G3expm

Cancer is a leading killer. And a driver of employer health costs 📈 The top three drivers of employer health costs are: 1️⃣ Cancer 2️⃣ Musculoskeletal conditions 3️⃣ Cardiovascular disease As they grapple with lowering these costs, we anticipate seeing more large employers turning to preventive health interventions. Corporate preventive health programs, often administered by healthtech startups, stand to benefit. 👉 https://lnkd.in/dZvJvHbD

The treatment of lung diseases has been long overdue for innovation. For this week’s MedTech Pulse, we were lucky to speak with someone leading that charge. Eva van Rikxoort is the CEO & Founder of Thirona, a global company using AI to analyze CT images of the lungs. Eva’s journey in the industry started when she was a scientist working for a contract research organization in image analysis. However, she was consistently frustrated that the work she was doing was not being translated into direct benefits for patients. After building expertise in AI-powered medical image analysis as a scientist for a decade, Eva started Thirona to bridge the gap between scientific accomplishments and the clinical applicability of technology. In our interview, we discussed the true global impact of clinical AI, innovation in rare diseases, and how to seek help as an innovator. Check out the interview below, and make sure to follow Eva van Rikxoort, PhD here on LinkedIn. 👉 https://lnkd.in/e5Z5e6dh

Among generative AI applications in clinical medicine, there’s one that’s garnering attention more than others. Soon, across the U.S., human scribes may meet their match. AI scribes are taking off. And healthcare systems want to make sure they have the best one. The resulting head-to-head pilots of top products are being called “healthcare’s Pepsi challenge.” Today, we’re looking at the landscape of AI scribes: → the biggest players, including Nuance Communications and Abridge → the way healthcare systems are testing these products → where we stand on accuracy Read the article to learn more 👉 https://lnkd.in/ePJ9sVK6

Could AI improve end-of-life care? There is perhaps nothing harder in the world than watching a loved one pass away. End-of-life decisions can be a special kind of torture for those faced with the responsibility—the medical surrogates. It’s hard to imagine how technology could possibly improve this situation. Of course, nothing will take away the devastation of loss. But what if innovation could provide a bit more structure or guidance to the end-of-life decision-making process? Enter: The P4, a new AI tool being developed to make end-of-life decisions easier for family members. Read the article to learn more 👉 https://lnkd.in/esff6s7K

🤷 How will AI impact healthcare? The UK public is still torn. → A majority of survey respondents think AI will either improve care or not change it. → But a significant minority still fears the impact will be negative. This is an important reminder we need to engage the public in discussions of clinical AI. To build trust and help patients better understand what this technology does and doesn’t do. 👉 https://lnkd.in/ebZG-rEn

Medical AI scribes are some of the most exciting, and oft-discussed applications of generative AI in healthcare. To get a look behind the scenes of what it’s like to be working in this new GenAI frontier, we were lucky to speak with Christopher Tan. Christopher is a machine learning scientist and CTO at TORTUS, the London-based healthtech behind the O.S.L.E.R. AI co-pilot for clinical documentation. In our interview, we discussed what it’s been like to work on pilot projects across the world, what other clinical AI applications the TORTUS team is excited about, and the initiatives bolstering healthtech innovation in the U.K. Check out the interview below, and make sure to follow Christopher Tan here on LinkedIn. 👉 https://lnkd.in/eVeRW3Up
