Dr. Anoop Rao Bio
Anoop Rao is a Clinical Instructor in Pediatrics (Division of Neonatology) at the Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital. After completing early medical training in India, he obtained his MS from MIT, and completed clinical training in Pediatrics from Columbia and fellowships in Neonatal Critical Care from Stanford and Biomedical Informatics from Harvard. He spent over 5 years at AgaMatrix, a startup focused on developing high-accuracy blood glucose meters.

At Stanford, his research is on contact and non-contact monitoring of infants. Anoop collaborates extensively with industry and is actively supported by NIH/Maternal and Child Health Research Institute.

Dr. Eric Dy Bio
Eric Dy, PhD is co-founder and CEO of Bloomlife, a women’s health company designing remote prenatal care solutions to improve the health of women and babies.  Eric brings unique perspective on the opportunities and challenges in emerging healthcare technologies and delivery models informed by multidisciplinary technical expertise leading business development for Europe’s leading R&D institute, imec. Eric earned his BSc in Bioengineering from Cornell and his MSc and PhD in Biomedical Engineering from UCLA.  Bloomlife has been recognized for their pioneering work winning Fast Company World Changing Ideas, Johnson & Johnson Quickfire Challenge, Richard Branson’s Extreme Tech Challenge, MedTech Innovator Award, and speaking at the White House Precision Public Health Summit.

Dr. Eric Dy Abstract
The period from conception through the first 1000 days of life are the most critical for lifelong health and development, yet too often we are failing women and babies at this time.  High risk pregnancies are on the rise, access to care is increasingly a problem, and pregnancy complications such as preterm birth now affect 1 in 10 babies.   Despite these growing challenges, the way we deliver prenatal care has not fundamentally changed in over 60 years.  We need smarter tools, better data, and scalable solutions to improve the health of moms and babies globally.

In this talk Bloomlife co-founder and CEO will share their strategy for designing the future of prenatal care.  He will discuss how clinical grade wearables, in the hands of mom, has helped create the largest dataset on pregnancy in the world, and how AI applied to this dataset is seeding breakthrough screening and diagnostic tools to help solve global maternal health issues including preterm birth.

ABSTRACT

Sweat is a complex fluid known to be rich in electrolytes, small molecules, and fatty acids. Although adults can sweat up to 10 liters per day, little is still known about the chemical composition of sweat, how this changes, and what are its implications for health and disease. We demonstrate a powerful approach to help elucidate this link, where collecting samples simply requires swabbing a glass slide across one’s forehead in less than 30 seconds. Using the combination of desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and statistical machine learning, our approach can successfully detect over 10,000 metabolites in sweat and identify metabolic changes in the sweat profile related to gender, age, and disease. As an example, we demonstrate in a cohort of 65 subjects the possibility of using just a few metabolites detected in sweat to successfully identify patients with renal disease. More generally, our approach suggests the possibility of using the sweat profile to non-invasively assess individual risk for metabolic diseases in the theme of “Precision Medicine.”

ABSTRACT
Digital health has provided a range of solutions, including health and wellness-related management, machine learning algorithms for pattern recognition, AI for genetic analysis, AI-enhanced clinical decision making, and virtual doctors that use AI for patient intake triage. Intellectual property can play an important role in providing a competitive advantage in the digital health industry. We will explore opportunities and challenges for protecting digital health technologies during the program, including patent eligibility challenges and the use of trade secrets.

Measuring Learning Gains in Man-Machine Assemblage When Augmenting Radiology Work with Artificial Intelligence

Abstract
The work setting of the future presents an opportunity for human-technology partnerships, where a harmonious connection between human-technology produces unprecedented productivity gains. A conundrum at this human-technology frontier remains – will humans be augmented by technology or will technology be augmented by humans? We present our work on overcoming the conundrum of human and machine as separate entities and instead, treats them as an assemblage. As groundwork for the harmonious human-technology connection, this assemblage needs to learn to fit synergistically. This learning is called assemblage learning and it will be important for Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications in health care, where diagnostic and treatment decisions augmented by AI will have a direct and significant impact on patient care and outcomes. We describe how learning can be shared between assemblages, such that collective swarms of connected assemblages can be created. Our work is to demonstrate a symbiotic learning assemblage, such that envisioned productivity gains from AI can be achieved without loss of human jobs.

Specifically, we are evaluating the following research questions: Q1: How to develop assemblages, such that human-technology partnerships produce a “good fit” for visually based cognition-oriented tasks in radiology? Q2: What level of training should pre-exist in the individual human (radiologist) and independent machine learning model for human-technology partnerships to thrive? Q3: Which aspects and to what extent does an assemblage learning approach lead to reduced errors, improved accuracy, faster turn-around times, reduced fatigue, improved self-efficacy, and resilience?
