Owkin Inc. partnered with Astrazeneca plc to develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered tool to pre-screen for germline BRCA mutations (gBRCAm) in breast cancer directly from digitized pathology slides. The companies hope that the gBRCA pre-screening solution will not only transform patients’ lives but bring value to health care systems.

The question of how to define artificial intelligence (AI) for medical product usage was answered by the FDA, which recently offered an AI glossary.

A collaborating team of researchers from the U.K.’s University College London and the Incliva Biomedical Research Institute in Valencia, Spain, filed for protection of a machine learning model called AMMON-OHE to predict occurrence of overt hepatic encephalopathy in patients with cirrhosis of the liver.

Mental tech startup Doctorpresso Co. Ltd. launched an audio journaling mobile application called Redi, in South Korea, as a voice analysis software capable of detecting depression through artificial intelligence-aided speech analysis.

Australia is the skin cancer capital of the world, but with a shortage of dermatologists, patients often wait too long to get skin checks that could end up costing them their lives.

In what represents its first patenting, Roseville, Minn.-based Iveacare Inc. provides insights as to what its first therapeutic target will likely be since the developer of neuromodulation therapy devices emerged from stealth mode in April 2024 with the closing of $27.5 million series A financing.

The first patenting from Encephalogix Inc. details its development of platform that uses machine learning and AI to analyze EEG data that is typically ignored.

Data from the Drai Martini study shows that artificial intelligence is shaking up the analysis of electrocardiograms. Results presented at the recent ESC Congress 2024, demonstrated that an AI algorithm, Deeprhythmai, developed by Medicalgorithmics Sp zo.o., has significantly higher sensitivity than human specialists in detecting heart rhythm disorders on long ECG recordings.

Technological breakthroughs are changing the biopharmaceutical landscape and forcing regulators to think on their feet and facilitate (not impede) innovation, experts said at the Global Bio Conference (GBC) 2024. “Regulatory speed and agility are necessary amid emergencies to cater to unmet medical needs,” Choong May Ling, CEO of Singapore’s Health Sciences Authority, told audience members in Seoul, South Korea.
