In this episode, Dr. Nisha Mehta is joined by Dr. Ami Bhatt, Chief Innovation Officer at the American College of Cardiology and the inaugural Chair of the FDA Digital Health Advisory Committee.
They discuss:
- Why it’s so important for medical societies to be involved in innovation, and how to do it appropriately to navigate conflicts of interest
- How shiny object syndrome can distract us from investing in the more boring, but more impactful, capabilities of AI
- The dangers of ‘half knowledge’ and where AI enthusiasts need to be more careful in bold statements about AI capabilities
- What patients would invest in if they were the ones allowed to deploy capital, and why we need to encourage patients who are trying to empower themselves with health tech
- What healthcare would look like in 10 years if we used technology to fix the right problems
