All experts agree: if there's one sector that AI will transform, it's healthcare. Whether it's understanding pathologies, developing personalized treatments, the doctor-patient relationship, diagnostic methods, or creating tools to facilitate the work of healthcare professionals, everything is affected by the ongoing transformation! This revolution raises many expectations and questions about the real impact these new technologies will have on tomorrow's medicine. One of the leading figures in this movement on the international scene is none other than the French-American company Owkin, which aims to be "the first end-to-end AI biotech company," whose R&D activities are overseen by Jean-Philippe Vert, himself a true pioneer in the field of machine learning and computational biology. The first “AI-first” biotech company of its kind, bringing a breath of fresh air to an industry known for being extremely costly and time-consuming. So how does AI accelerate the development of new therapies? What is its role in identifying new molecules and targets? How can it be used to create new diagnostic tools? Can we leverage patient data without compromising their safety and privacy? And what can we expect from future models and their impact on our understanding of biology? These are all fascinating questions that Jean-Philippe breaks down with pedagogy and realism, shedding light on one of the most exciting fields of medicine in this era! Timeline: 04:21 - Jean-Philippe’s background at the interface of mathematics, computer science, and life sciences 07:10 - Owkin’s mission to become the first end-to-end AI biotech firm 09:48 - Leveraging AI for drug discovery and new treatment modalities 14:35 - Selecting target indications and therapeutic areas 17:13 - Changing the way we run clinical trials through AI 22:03 - Unlocking patient data across hospitals while preserving safety and privacy 25:40 - Developing AI-based diagnostics and driving clinical adoption 34:50 - Towards the first AI foundation model to understand biology What we also talked about with Jean-Philippe Google DeepMind Large Language Models (LLMs) Digital twins External control arms Federated learning Digital pathology MSIntuit CRC Bioptimus Neural networks As mentioned by Jean-Philippe during the episode, we recommend taking a look at Owkin and Bioptimus websites as well as their respective Publications & News section to learn more about their technology and stay posted on their latest activities. If you are a data scientist or machine learning enthusiast, you can tackle one of the many biology-related challenges proposed by Kaggle on their platform.

Editor’s Summary by Linda Brubaker, MD, and Preeti Malani, MD, MSJ, Deputy Editors of JAMA, the Journal of the American Medical Association, for articles published from November 9-15, 2024.

Indigenous nurses bring more than clinical expertise to their practice—they bring a legacy of resilience, cultural knowledge, and a commitment to holistic care that honors their ancestors, culture, and history. For Native and Indigenous nurses, advancing practice means blending tradition and cultural humility with innovation to meet the unique needs of their communities, build trust, and transform health outcomes.   In this episode, we learn from Chippewa Indian Nurse researcher and educator Misty Wilkie PhD, RN, FAAN an Indigenous nurse director of the Doctoral Education Pathway for American Indian/Alaska Native Nurses at the University of Minnesota School of Nursing, to explore how the Center for Indigenous People, Health & Nursing is devoted to improving the health and well-being of Indigenous people and communities works toward reconciliation. Aiming to eliminate health disparities by building trusting relationships with Tribal Nations, developing evidence-based practices, and preparing doctorally trained Indigenous healthcare leaders, Misty Wilkie emphasizes the power of honoring tradition, language, and strengths to shape more inclusive, equitable healthcare systems.   Find this episode’s resources at www.seeyounowpodcast.com and more information on the podcast bundles visit ANA’s Innovation Website at www.nursingworld.org/innovation.
