AI at Pennington: From Research to Personalized Medicine

Sujoy Ghosh from The Pennington Biomedical Research Center joined Brian Haldane to explain the center expanding its long-standing use of AI beyond research into administrative and productivity tasks. AI now helps identify key factors in obesity, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s, enabling personalized medicine and predictive insights, though challenges like data bias and over-reliance remain. The next steps include broadening datasets, refining predictive models, and educating staff to keep humans in the driver’s seat.
