Larry Smarr - The Human Microbiome and the Revolution in Digital Health

Published on Mar 14, 2014


The human body is host to 100 trillion microorganisms, ten times the number of cells in the human body and these microbes contain 100 times the number of DNA genes that our human DNA does. The microbial component of our "superorganism" is comprised of hundreds of species with immense biodiversity. Thanks to the National Institutes of Health's Human Microbiome Program researchers have been discovering the states of the human microbiome in health and disease. To put a more personal face on the "patient of the future," I have been collecting massive amounts of data from my own body over the last five years, which reveals detailed examples of the episodic evolution of this coupled immune-microbial system. To decode the details of the microbial ecology requires high resolution genome sequencing feeding Big Data parallel supercomputers. Since modern medicine has not taken into account the nature and changes in the human microbiome, we can look forward to revolutionary changes in medical practice over the next decade.

Larry Smarr is the founding Director of the California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology (Calit2), a UC San Diego / UC Irvine partnership and the Harry E. Gruber professor in UCSD's Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE). Before that he served as founding Director of the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA). He is a member of the National Academy of Engineering and a Fellow of the American Physical Society and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He advises NASA, NIH, DOE, and NSF. His views have been quoted in Science, Nature, the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Time, Newsweek, Wired, Fortune, Business Week, CNN, and the Atlantic. His personal interests include growing orchids, snorkeling coral reefs, and quantifying the state of his body.

RI Seminar: Pierre E. Dupont : Creating Robots for Ultra-minimally Invasive Surgery

Streamed live on Sep 20, 2013
Pierre E. Dupont
Boston Children Hospital, Harvard Medical School

September 20, 2013


Abstract
Image-guided minimally invasive surgery has revolutionized the standard of care throughout the body. While robotics has been an important part of the solution for certain laparoscopic procedures, its impact has been limited by the size and straight-line access requirement of many existing robotic systems. Our lab is investigating smaller, less-invasive robot technologies and two will be described in this talk. The first is a type of continuum robot that is based on concentrically combining pre-curved elastic tubes. We are designing these robots together with a tool set with the goal of converting intracardiac procedures currently performed as open-heart surgery to percutaneous, beating-heart interventions. We are also developing tetherless robots that can move or swim inside the body and that are powered, controlled and imaged using an MRI scanner. Applications of this technology at several length scales will be discussed including robotic implants for applying tissue traction forces and millimeter-scale robots for targeted drug delivery.

First of its Kind in North Texas: Scarless Robotic Hysterectomy at Medical City Dallas Hospital
May 22, 2013


A surgical team at Medical City performed the first single site hysterectomy using the da Vinci robot on May 9. The patient’s uterus, ovaries and cervix were removed after Medical City’s Dr. Thomas Heffernan made one tiny incision in the belly button. The procedure is virtually scarless, due to the natural appearance of the navel. Traditional robotic surgeries require three to four small incisions. Dr. Heffernan is one of a small group of surgeons in the nation, and one of only two in Texas, who is trained to perform the single-site robotic surgery. Benefits of the surgery include minimal pain, low blood loss, and a typical hospital stay of 24 hours. This particular patient took two-mile walks just days after the surgery.

How we build soft robotic hearts

Published on Feb 14, 2018


Heart In Your Hands invites you to hold a beautifully designed robotic heart beating in time with your own, or of your loved ones, to arouse a deeper appreciation and to inspire empathy toward this hidden engine of our lives.

Engineer Richard Sewell, artist Natasha Rosling and designer Helen White worked closely with biomedical engineer Dr David Nordsletten to design an intimate experience to stimulate a more fundamental understanding of cardiac mechanics and the engineers that are advancing our understanding of our hearts and heart health.

The virtual human project

Published on Mar 12, 2018


The virtual human project has the potential to transform medicine. The project is already helping to reduce the need for animals in drug testing. In the long term, a virtual version of you will be used test treatments, like a crash test dummy, guinea pig and trial volunteer all rolled into one. Your digital doppelgänger could breathe, blister and bleed. It could be dissected, probed and explored in unprecedented detail, helping to work out the treatments that work best for you.

The film was produced by the Barcelona Supercomputing Centre and CompBioMed H2020 Centre of Excellence in Computational Biomedicine, led by University College London.

How doctors can help A.I. to revolutionize medicine

Published on Aug 9, 2018


Greg Corrado, Co-founder of Google Brain and Principal Scientist at Google, has spent the last decade at the forefront of the A.I. revolution. Greg's vision for how A.I. will help to shape the future of health and medicine is grounded in his experience as a neuroscientist—before he started working on computer neural networks, he was focused on neural networks in the human brain.

From distilling data insights to improving the decision making process, Greg sees a multitude of ways that A.I. and machine learning can help magnify the healing powers of doctors. In fact, he believes that doctors who embrace A.I. will "see their healing powers expand more than they have in a hundred years." Tune in to Greg's 2017 TEDMED Talk to learn more about the enormous role that A.I. and machine learning will play in the future of health and medicine, and why doctors and other healthcare professionals must play a central role in that revolution.

How AI is making it easier to diagnose disease | Pratik Shah (https://www.linkedin.com/in/pratikshahmit)

Published on Aug 21, 2018


Today's AI algorithms require tens of thousands of expensive medical images to detect a patient's disease. What if we could drastically reduce the amount of data needed to train an AI, making diagnoses low-cost and more effective? TED Fellow Pratik Shah is working on a clever system to do just that. Using an unorthodox AI approach, Shah has developed a technology that requires as few as 50 images to develop a working algorithm -- and can even use photos taken on doctors' cell phones to provide a diagnosis. Learn more about how this new way to analyze medical information could lead to earlier detection of life-threatening illnesses and bring AI-assisted diagnosis to more health care settings worldwide.

On the Mayo Clinic Radio podcast, Dr. Bradley Erickson, a Mayo Clinic diagnostic radiologist, will discuss AI in medicine and society.

This interview originally aired Nov. 9, 2019.

When you think of artificial intelligence (AI), you might imagine what you see in the movies: robots, self-driving vehicles, and computers that think and act like humans. You might already be using AI every day when you ask Siri or Alexa for help. AI might be better described as machine learning or deep learning, and it is a fast-growing part of medicine, changing how health care providers treat patients. For example, AI is being used at Mayo Clinic to detect heart disease, treat stroke patients faster and create algorithms for diagnostic radiology.
