Deep learning

• Measles is a highly contagious and often severe disease that most commonly affects children.
• These consequences are largely preventable through early interventions, but getting ahead of major outbreaks is difficult when access to data is limited.
• With support from the Gates Foundation, expert epidemiologists and modelers from Ginkgo Bioworks and Northeastern University will develop a measles forecasting model to assess the risk of outbreaks and inform decision-making for timely interventions.
• We believe the technologies we're developing will give us the ability to get ahead of the curve for measles and other biological threats."

• He outlines what he calls the deep medicine framework as a comprehensive strategy for the incorporation of AI into different aspects of healthcare.
• The framework of deep medicine is built upon three core pillars: deep phenotyping, deep learning and deep empathy.
• These pillars are all interconnected and adopting this framework could enhance patient care, support healthcare staff and strengthen the entire NHS system.

Deep phenotyping

• Deep phenotyping refers to a comprehensive picture of an individual’s health data, across a full lifetime.
• A deep phenotype goes far beyond the limited data collected during a standard medical appointment or health episode.

Deep learning

• This is where deep learning – an area of AI that seeks to simulate the decision-making power of the human brain – is so valuable.
• Deep learning uses an algorithm called a neural network that uses little, mathematical computers, called “neurons”, that are connected to one another to share and learn information.

• Advances in neural network algorithms, technology, and availability of digital data have enabled neural networks to demonstrate impressive performance.
• For instance, they have enabled the rapid and accurate analysis of medical images, such as X-rays and MRIs.
• In addition, AI technology like that behind ChatGPT can process medical literature and patient records to help make complex diagnoses.

Deep empathy

• This is the pillar of deep medicine known as deep empathy.
• Healthcare has increasingly become a discipline where the human touch, once its cornerstone, is overshadowed by a relentless pursuit of efficiency.
• AI solutions can be designed to reduce the administrative burdens for staff, opening up more opportunities for meaningful patient interaction.
