Faster medical treatment saves lives. Machine Learning is already saving lives, by scouring a multitude of patients’ data and comparing them to one patient’s health data to detect symptoms 12 to 24 hours sooner than a doctor could. "In many pressing medical problems, the answers to knowing whom to treat, when to treat, and what to treat with, might already be in your data" says Suchi Saria. Learn how TREWS (Targeted Real-time Early Warning Score) is leading the way to save lives.
Suchi Saria is a professor of computer science and health policy, and director of the Machine Learning and Health Lab at Johns Hopkins University. Her research is focused on designing data solutions for providing individualized care.

A peek under the hood of the world’s first autonomous indoor drone
Published on Jun 15, 2017
Quote:
Following a successful demo at the Máxima Medical Center in the Netherlands, a team of young students at TU Eindhoven (TU/e) seem on course to develop the world’s first autonomous indoor drone – project name ‘Blue Jay Eindhoven’. The dream is to see their drone support healthcare professionals across their work. This is largely uncharted territory, both in drone technology and healthcare, and here the students and some of the drone experts championing their groundbreaking work discuss the technological challenges the project faces.

Article "A 'scorpion-milking' robot has been developed to extract venom from the arachnids faster and more safely for use in cancer research"
Venom is usually milked manually in what can be a dangerous procedure
The robot allows for scorpion venom to be extracted safely and quickly
The new machine straps scorpions to an extractor and electrocutes them
This stimulates the arachnid's venom glands and the machine then collects the poison in special wells
