The AIMed-NHS AI Lab virtual conference is taking place now. Indra Joshi, Director of Artificial Intelligence (AI) at NHSx, the digital unit of NHS, gave an overview of what the NHS AI lab had achieved since its launch last summer; its ongoing effort and what we can look out for in the very near fut
The AIMed-NHS AI Lab virtual conference is taking place now. Early on, UK Secretary of State for Health and Social Care Matt Hancock opened the event calling the NHS artificial intelligence (AI) effort is an “agenda on the move”. He said the NHS AI lab was set up “to drive forward the high-quality u
The COVID-19 pandemic is running its apocalyptic course around the world. One thing is certain in the midst of total uncertainty and utter chaos: SARS-CoV-2 is a very daunting enemy and we remain totally subjugated by these viral overlords. It is easy, therefore, for we humans to lose patience and b
AIMed hosted AIMed Intensive Care Unit (ICU) virtual conference yesterday (22 September). Close to 20 field experts presented on topics around data; machine and deep learning for decision support; natural language processing (NLP) and workflow, and general issues in artificial intelligence (AI) and
The COVID-19 pandemic is running its apocalyptic course around the world. One thing is certain in the midst of total uncertainty and utter chaos: SARS-CoV-2 is a very daunting enemy and we remain totally subjugated by these viral overlords. It is easy, therefore, for we humans to lose patience and b
In the days when standardization was absent, researchers were not obliged to share clinical trial data and whether participants were voluntarily recruited into their studies. These inadequate and poor-quality outcome reporting challenged succeeding researchers to evaluate, replicate and build upon p
No time for guessing game. Three things payers need to consider if they are to survive the impact of deferred care. A recent Kaiser Family Foundation survey found that nearly half of all Americans say they or someone they live with has delayed care since COVID started. The why behind this is two-fol
“I am formally trained as a cardiac-electrophysiologist and for the past 40 years I have prescribed a medication known as Amiodarone. This medication interacts with almost every other drug; especially the blood thinner, Warfarin, which is meant to prevent stokes from atrial fibrillation. Despite pr
Nothing beats the stimulation of designing and building a machine learning model, but it has become more obvious in recent years that the process can be a tedious one too. The call for a more inclusive, liable, and transparent artificial intelligence (AI) has never been louder. Yet, in the absent of
