Episode 26: The Evolution of Medical AI from the Early Days, with Professor Mark Braunstein

Medical AI might seem like a really new field. For example, the first medical AI product approved by the FDA was done so in only 2017. But does medical AI actually have a history that is far longer and richer than we might think? And are there important lessons to be learnt from that history? Felix discusses with Professor Mark Braunstein, Author of "Health Informatics on FHIR". An author and thought-leader in the field, Dr. Braunstein is a professor of health informatics for the School of Interactive Computing in the College of Computing at the Georgia Institute of Technology where he teaches Introduction to Health Informatics, a popular graduate seminar, both on campus and as part of the OMSCS program. He is involved with HL7 and in various research projects at Georgia Tech, and works with and advises numerous community and industry groups.
