AI to the Rescue: Rosie the Dog's Cancer Cure

A Sydney tech entrepreneur treats a terminal cancer diagnosis as a data problem, sequencing his dog Rosie’s DNA, modeling cancer proteins with AlphaFold, and using AI to generate a bespoke mRNA vaccine. After months of ethics approvals and lab collaboration, Rosie’s tumor halved and her energy returned. This episode explores the democratization of medicine through citizen science, the limits and promise of AI‑driven biomedicine, and what open, bespoke biology could mean for pets and people.Note:  This podcast was AI-generated, and sometimes AI can make mistakes.  Please double-check any critical information.Sponsored by Embersilk LLC
