In this episode of the SMART Healthcare Podcast, Matthew interviews Dr. Mark Graber, founder of the Society to Improve Diagnosis in Medicine (SIDM). Diagnosis is no easy feat, and it requires the physician to carefully consider a multitude of factors through a process known as a differential diagnosis; in 90% of the cases, the correct diagnosis is able to be reached via this method. However, in the other 10% of cases, something goes awry, resulting in a false diagnosis. The errors that result in misdiagnosis are quite broad, ranging from human error to systemic problems affecting how fast lab ..read more

In the first installment of the SMART Healthcare Podcast, Matthew interviews Dr. Bob Rogers, co-author of the upcoming book titled "Demystifying AI for the Enterprise." With the growth of algorithm development in healthcare over the past couple decades, there have been increasing problems surrounding both the security of patient data, as well as the intellectual property being developed. The coalescing of these issues has put a major roadblock in the development and testing of new clinical algorithms. However, a company co-founded by Bob, called BeekeeperAI, is paving the way forward by facili ..read more
