E124 | How AI is being used to tackle global health challenges

AI For Pharma Growth

In this episode of AI For Pharma Growth, Dr. Andree Bates is joined by Julien Willard, a Partner and Life Science Lead at IBM. Julien is focused on how AI is being used to tackle global health challenges, particularly in low and middle-income countries (LMICs).

Julien & Andree discuss the importance of accounting for local context when implementing tech into healthcare, overcoming limited data and infrastructure, the need for collaboration, addressing systemic healthcare issues, and ensuring transparency and ethics.

In this episode you will learn:

• AI implementations often fail to account for local context, leading to biassed models and lack of trust.
• Overcoming limited data, poor infrastructure, and workflow integration is crucial.
• Collaboration between governments, development agencies, and tech companies is essential.
• AI applications like diabetic retinopathy screening can help but systemic issues must be addressed.
• Transparency, ethical considerations, and inclusive development are key.
