AI in Healthcare: How Genetics and Technology Are Transforming Patient Care | Andy Moye

This is GENETICS FOR HEALTHCARE—a podcast dedicated to helping patients and caregivers advocate for precision medicine in treatment, survivorship, disease screening, and prevention. #geneticsforhealthcareIn this episode Rome welcomes Andy Moye PhD, healthcare industry executive and AI expert, to discuss the transformative role of artificial intelligence in genetics and precision medicine. AI isn’t just a buzzword . . . it’s a tool to make healthcare more accurate, accessible, and human-centered.Andy explains that AI, at its core, is advanced pattern recognition, helping doctors analyze complex data at the point-of-care like: genetic sequences, medical images, and clinical records to improve diagnoses and treatment plans. He highlights how AI can reduce human error in fields like radiology and pathology, where fatigue and subjectivity can lead to missed or incorrect diagnoses.The conversation shifts to the challenges of integrating AI into healthcare, including the need for high-quality training data and clinician trust. Andy emphasizes that AI isn’t about replacing doctors and other healthcare employees, but supporting them, especially in overburdened systems where human resources are stretched thin.Rome and Andy also explore the ethical balance between innovation and regulation, noting that while AI doesn’t need to be perfect, it must be reliable enough to enhance decision-making without stifling progress.The episode ends on a personal note, with Andy recounting his experience during 9/11 while deployed overseas, tying his leadership journey to his mission in healthcare.Genetics For Healthcare:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5tvMOrd9RyHLdOEGFNWavq?si=18815af6d1fe4da0Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GeneticsForHealthcareInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/geneticsforhealthcare/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@genetics.for.healthcareLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/genetics-for-healthcare-podcast/
