Looking to stay up to date on developments in health care technology? Want to do it in about a half hour? Tune in to “The Pod of Asclepius,” a new podcast sponsored by the ASA’s Section on Statistical Learning and Data Science, Section on Medical Devices and Diagnostics, and North Carolina Chapter, along with an ASA Strategic Initiatives grant.
The podcast will focus on advances in data science, engineering, and regulatory challenges in bridging the gap between technical innovation and clinical solutions.
Each episode is produced in both audio and video format to accommodate both high-level interviews and technical deep-dives into the methods when visual material is helpful.
The podcast launched in January with the following pre-season episodes:
- Allison Meisner (The Johns Hopkins University) on her work in bespoke statistical models for clinical prognosis in kidney injury
- Emma Hughes (NHS England) on digital test-bed programs to bring digital technology into the clinic
- Martin Ho (US Food and Drug Administration) and Greg Maislin (University of Pennsylvania) on the ASA’s Medical Device and Diagnostics Section and digital health initiatives
- Glen Wright Colopy (Cenduit) on probabilistic personalized patient vital-sign monitoring
New episodes began airing every two weeks in January with the following guests:
- Jeroen Bergman and Daniel Mogefors on needs-led medical innovation at the University of Oxford
- Niven Narain (Berg Health) on data platforms for pharmaceutical innovation
- Tian Zheng (Columbia) on the ASA’s Statistical Learning and Data Science Section
