Our new @ThaLancet Digital Medicine essay is especially timely
thelancet.com/journals/lance…
It's on #AI-assisted endoscopy w/ @tberzin, a co-author and collaborator in 3 randomized clinical trials @BIDMChealth
@tberzin @BIDMChealth Of the 6 randomized trials of #AI in medicine published to date, 5 are in #gastroenterology, using real-time machine vision during endoscopy. All of these were conducted in China.
@tberzin @BIDMChealth Unlike other deep neural networks for medical imaging, it requires real time assessment to detect an adenoma and decide whether a biopsy is indicated.
This video from Japan's @LPIXEL_Inc shows where the field is headed #AI
@tberzin @BIDMChealth @LPIXEL_Inc Now if #AI could only get rid of the prep💩😉
@tberzin @BIDMChealth @LPIXEL_Inc 1 reason for remarkable progress in #AI-endoscopy is the innovation & commitment of many companies in this space; some of which have funded the randomized trials
@WisionAI #ai4gi @LPIXEL_Inc @Endo_Vigilant @IterativeScopes docbot.co <- thanks @AndrewNinh @virgosvs

We need new antibiotics to counter resistance. Now @MITdeptofBE's James Collins,@BarzilayRegina @ItsJonStokes @MIT_CSAIL @WyssInstitue, @broadinstitute & team have trained a
#deeplearning #AI model to help the path of discovery

@MITdeptofBE @BarzilayRegina @ItsJonStokes @MIT_CSAIL @broadinstitute @CellCellPress @AIHealthMIT @CellPressNews When there's any report about an #AI and drug discovery effort, my "go to" is @Dereklowe for perspective.
When he says "So overall, this is an impressive paper," it has gravitas:

@MITdeptofBE @BarzilayRegina @ItsJonStokes @MIT_CSAIL @broadinstitute @CellCellPress @AIHealthMIT @CellPressNews @Dereklowe "The study is remarkable, says Jacob Durrant @LabDurrant ... The team didn’t just identify candidates, but also validated promising molecules in animal tests."
nature.com/articles/d4158… @NatureNews by @JoMarchant May be the best #AI-drug story yet, especially for unmet need.

The field of #cancerneuro is exploding.
The cancer-neuronal crosstalk that is promoting tumor growth.
Just look at today's and another recent @nature cover

Can a Mediterranean #diet (vs controls) in people age 65-79 promote cognitive function, less frailty & markers of inflammation? A gut #microbiome assessment w/ #AI ML
gut.bmj.com/content/early/… @Gut_BMJ #openaccess by @ghosh_tarini @UCC and colleagues @Pharmabiotic @APCMicrobiome
@Gut_BMJ @ghosh_tarini @UCC @Pharmabiotic @APCMicrobiome Correct 1st author is @tarini_ghosh
@Gut_BMJ @ghosh_tarini @UCC @Pharmabiotic @APCMicrobiome Another new #diet 10-year study of heart disease risk, centered on plasma TMAO, a gut #microbiome metabolite, points toward advantage of hi vegetable and low animal fat, red meat (w/ the usual caveats)

1/9 Quick synopsis of our recent double-blind randomized study on computer-aided polyp detection in @LancetGastroHep, which can be found here: thelancet.com/journals/langa…
2/9 Previous work by our team and others have shown that #AI polyp detection can improve ADR. A major question has been whether use of on-screen computer-aided detection merely increases the vigilance of the endoscopist (vs. specifically helping find more polyps).
3/9 We enrolled 1046 pts. We tried to address operational bias by blinding the endoscopist to whether or not CADe was being used. Blinding is hard. This required development of a 'sham' CADe system by @WisionAI that alerted only to 'polyp-like' findings (bubbles, folds etc).

@McLNeuro @DrAilshire @JMGrohNeuro @sbarolo @hormiga @risss_evans @KKTreseder @SarahEMyhre @batssiki @sbrietz Set up ways to continue dialogue with @NIHDirector & committee–ongoing conversation & input. Action plan before you leave. Also make clear any further delays are unacceptable. Action plans, strong regulations/policies must be instituted immediately. Petition is excellent example.
@McLNeuro @DrAilshire @JMGrohNeuro @sbarolo @hormiga @risss_evans @KKTreseder @SarahEMyhre @batssiki @sbrietz @NIHDirector 1- Many excellent thoughts/suggestions in thread. We thought a list of comments/support/urgency from many sectors may be useful. Concerning that @NIHDirector has not made clear, active efforts to stop #SexualHarassment by @NIH grant holders while @NSF & other orgs have.
@McLNeuro @DrAilshire @JMGrohNeuro @sbarolo @hormiga @risss_evans @KKTreseder @SarahEMyhre @batssiki @sbrietz @NIHDirector @NIH @NSF 2- Why isn’t #SexualHarassment a top #NIH priority. Why the resistance to actively creating strong policies against #SexualHarassment to protect #WomenInMedicine #WomenInScience #WomenInSTEM #WomeninEngineering, even when called out repeatedly by many. What’s the real issue here?

New LANCET editorial: "what is a healthy amount of red or processed meat? It's looking increasingly like the answer, for both the planet & the individual, is very little [...] *The conversation has to start soon*"

🤔 So, what's this REALLY about ⁉️

Let's start with this business Valhalla (Clinton F, Ford F, J&J, ...) named "C40" & one of its partners "EAT"

Its goal: "covene decision makers who can transform the way we eat" 🤔‼️

So what is EAT? A highly-connected organisation for "food system transformation" founded by the wife of a Norwegian billionaire.

@McLNeuro @statnews "In stark contrast, the NIH has done essentially nothing to address gender violence committed by NIH-funded scientists"–@statnews YET in 5 yrs it's paid out almost $2 million 2 settle #SexualHarassment cases brt by scientists in its own labs! buzzfeednews.com/article/petera… #TimesUpNIH
@McLNeuro @statnews 1- .@NIHDirector Why is taking effective action necessary? Be part of the solution. @JulieSilverMD @DrPaulaJohnson @LiliaCortina @RUBraveEnough @GeoEdResearch #MeTooSTEM #WomenInMedicine #academicmedicine @AndrewMIbrahim @laxswamy @jocalynclark @JaneMayerNYer #MedEd #LancetWomen
@McLNeuro @statnews @NIHDirector @JulieSilverMD @DrPaulaJohnson @LiliaCortina @RUBraveEnough @GeoEdResearch @AndrewMIbrahim @laxswamy @jocalynclark @JaneMayerNYer 2- And 69% of female medical students reported experiencing #sexualHarassment or #genderdiscrimination during medical school. 2016 #AAMC med student surveys-similar results. @arghavan_salles @janevandis @AAMCtoday #LCME @ProPublica @DrHowardLiu #TimesUpNIH
