Empowering Health Providers with Predictive Analytics - AI in Healthcare and Drug Discovery

Explore the transformative potential of AI in healthcare and drug discovery in this 37-minute talk by Kira Radinsky, CEO of Diagnostic Robotics and co-founder of Mana.bio. Delve into Radinsky's journey from predicting cholera outbreaks to revolutionizing patient care through predictive analytics. Learn how AI accelerates drug discovery, creates rapid learning feedback loops, and improves healthcare outcomes. Discover the challenges of making bold predictions, the importance of causal inference in GenAI, and the future impact of AI on chemistry and biology. Gain insights on incentivizing AI for bolder predictions and the potential of AI to transform administrative aspects of patient care. Understand how advances in software enable scientific pursuits and the value of predictions in preventing negative outcomes, particularly in healthcare.
