How An A.I.-Based Skin Checking App Can Work With A National Healthcare System
You might be already familiar with skin checking apps, we too have discussed them quite extensively recently. Skin checking applications allow users to take pictures of their suspicious skin lesions, upload these pictures to a server, the images are first evaluated by an A.I. algorithm and the results will be later validated by a dermatologist.
However, this time there is something new under the sun: AIP Labs and Semmelweis University (Hungary’s leading medical university) developed a skin checking application that offers several features we have not seen before. It was launched to work integrated with the natio...

Healthcare ’s Sustainability Problem And The Solutions Tech Can Provide
The following is a guest article by Melissa Powell, COO at Genesis HealthCare.
Healthcare’s future is smart and sustainable, led by tech-driven solutions and human ingenuity. One great success story of sustainable healthcare that combines those forces begins with a nurse who sews.
Tami Ochs, an RN at New Jersey’s Overlook Medical Center, helped the facility repurpose 15,000 pounds of surgical blue wrap that was being discarded annually. She began sewing shopping bags from the non-biodegradable material used to cover sterile equipment, a project that blossomed into a goal to replace 100,000 plastic bags patients use eve...

Offered Few Choices, Caregivers Still Second-Guess Their Decisions
Photo credit John Mark Smith
Like most adults, I’ve second-guessed many of my own decisions. While most were made with my own future in mind, that all changed when I became a family caregiver for an ever-increasing number of older adults – a time that also coincided with raising two young children, one with health challenges.
A dying aunt, a budding son: My aunt Marion, who had no children of her own, was in the hospital dying of cancer. While my parents visited her much of the time, I’d been close to her since I first learned to walk, so I tried to see her as much as possible. One afternoon, it had become evident ...

Rural America is a Fertile Field for Digital Health
BY ERIC LARSEN and TOMMY IBRAHIM
Eric Larsen
Tommy Ibrahim
Our rural health care system has suffered badly during the COVID-19 pandemic. It entered the pandemic with severe structural weaknesses, including magnified health disparities and inequities, lower rates of vaccination in the general population, and high risk of rural hospital closures. Beginning with these challenges, rural providers have been harder hit by the pandemic than just about any other health care sector.
Juxtaposed against this struggle is the optimism for digital health – one of the few bright spots of the pandemic. We have witnessed ...

“Being able to discover new, unexpected things is why you wake up every day and go to work as a scientist. The other part is hopefully to have a positive impact on human health—through combatting conditions ranging from antibiotic resistance to cancer,” says Elizabeth Parkinson, Ph.D., an assistant professor of organic chemistry at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana. In an interview, Dr. Parkinson shared with us her path to a scientific career, research on natural products made by soil-dwelling bacteria, and advice for students.

Hackers, Breaches And The Value Of Health Data: 2022 E-Book Update
As solutions like remote care are becoming the norm, 3D printing disrupts the normal supply chain and the number of life science studies on tools like artificial intelligence (A.I.) skyrocket, it’s become clear that we are not anticipating the digital health era; we are in the digital health era. This was to come sooner or later, but the pandemic accelerated the process by years.
However, along with the enhanced healthcare landscape that digital health brings along, there is the pressing issue of privacy. To put it bluntly, there is no digital health without sacrificing a part of our privacy. The advanced techno...
