Here's another one of those slides that I've been using, going on 10 years. When I jumped into healthcare from space and defense in the mid-1990s, I planned on being a hero by bringing AI (clustering and pattern recognition) into healthcare. I was cluele…lnkd.in/gzeUXkhT

I would add a 14th… That is, healthcare provider and public health organizations need formal training in risk assessment and management. Risk = Probability x Consequence As either one of these variables trends towards zero, overall Risk trends towards…lnkd.in/grYTp5rn

I've been talking about the psychology of data for the past several years... that is, the way we humans hoard and refuse to share data, react to data which opposes our view of the world, twist data to fit our agenda, profit from data at the expense of tho…lnkd.in/dCgvgctc

Yesterday, Intelligent Medical Objects (IMO) announced a great acquisition of Melax Tech, now a part of IMO-- which might be the quietest, most effective NLP company in healthcare, thanks to Andre Pontin, Hua Xu, and their team. Combining IMO's precise cl…lnkd.in/gw22imJB
