The Tumor Hacker: How Data & AI Are Rewriting the Future of Oncology

from Decoded · host Dr. Jurgi Camblong

Most doctors look at a tumor and see a disease. Professor Olivier Michielin sees a code waiting to be cracked. Starting his career in physics and training under Nobel Prize winner Martin Karplus, Olivier realized early on that he "would not be happy just talking to electrons". He pivoted to medicine to bring a data-driven, engineering mindset to oncology. Today, he is rewriting the rules of how we treat melanoma and other complex cancers by combining immunotherapy with advanced algorithms. In this episode, the "Tumor Hacker" joins Dr. Jurgi Camblong to discuss how he is using physics, AI, and immunotherapy to rewrite the future of oncology. From training with Nobel laureates to leading oncology at HUG, Olivier explains why the future of medicine isn’t about discovering cures by accident - it’s about engineering them by design. A conversation about the convergence of data, biology, and the human immune system. For more information on this episode follow the link below:https://www.linkedin.com/in/jurgicamblong/https://www.sophiagenetics.com/podcasts/#Oncology #Immunotherapy #AIinHealthcare #PrecisionMedicine #DecodedPodcast

Mary Wanless - Ride With Your Mind Mary Wanless BHSI BSc MARY WANLESS presents crucial information on how the Ride With Your Mind approach to Rider Biomechanics can transform your learning, your riding, and possibly your life.  Out of frustration at her progression as a rider, Mary embarked on a journey to discover the 'how' of skilled riding - why couldn’t she learn to ride as skilfully as “talented” riders? Over more than 40 years she has decoded the hidden laws of rider-horse interaction and now teaches the skills that combine to create “talent”, both in person and through online courses at www.dressagetraining.tv. In these podcasts, Mary talks about her journey to date, her key discoveries, and some pivotal moments. She illuminates her key points with metaphor and story, and, at times, presents insights derived from sports psychology. Prepare to be entertained, to learn, to become curious, and to understand a little (or maybe a lot) more about your interact Climate Decoded Climate Decoded Climate Decoded is a podcast that deciphers climate change communication. By weaving together rigorous analysis, expert insights and compelling storytelling, we untangle how different narratives illuminate or obscure pathways to climate justice. Our mission is to improve climate media literacy, foster meaningful climate conversations and spur informed, just action on climate change. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Data Science Decoded Mike E We discuss seminal mathematical papers (sometimes really old 😎 ) that have shaped and established the fields of machine learning and data science as we know them today. The goal of the podcast is to introduce you to the evolution of these fields from a mathematical and slightly philosophical perspective. We will discuss the contribution of these papers, not just from pure a math aspect but also how they influenced the discourse in the field, which areas were opened up as a result, and so on.Our podcast episodes are also available on our youtube: https://youtu.be/wThcXx_vXjQ?si=vnMfs
