Organoids, AI, and the Future of Healthcare | Jason Burke

Miniature organs grown from cells. Artificial intelligence making increasingly complex healthcare decisions. Quantum computing. FDA-regulated data systems.Science fiction is becoming remarkably close to scientific reality.Jason Burke joins BioTalk Unzipped for a wide-ranging discussion of emerging technologies and how they could change drug discovery, clinical research, precision medicine, and healthcare.The conversation begins with organoids, three-dimensional cell structures designed to reproduce important characteristics of human organs. Gregory, Chad, and Jason discuss their applications in research as well as the ethical questions that become particularly interesting when brain organoids enter the conversation.Jason then explains his background and discusses the technologies he believes could materially transform clinical research.The discussion moves into AI, data science, precision medicine, and quantum computing before addressing a challenge every organization eventually confronts: implementing powerful new technologies without sacrificing data integrity, regulatory compliance, or sound strategy.The episode concludes with discussion of FDA expectations, 21 CFR Part 11, and why successful digital transformation requires more than simply adopting the newest technology.Chapters01:14 - Introduction to BioTalk Unzipped 03:30 - New News: Organoids and their applications 04:45 - Ethical questions surrounding brain organoids and biological computing 06:31 - Organoids in drug-discovery research and brain interfaces 08:59 - Brain training and neuroplasticity 10:51 - The impact of AI and data science in healthcare 11:18 - Jason’s background and emerging technologies transforming clinical research 13:43 - AI in precision medicine, quantum computing, and business growth 24:15 - FDA IT strategy and the challenges of implementing AI 26:32 - Technology strategy, prioritization, data integrity, and 21 CFR Part 11Connect with Jason BurkeJason Burke https://www.linkedin.com/in/jasonburke/Creo Inc. https://www.creoinc.net/Connect with the hostsDr. Chad Briscoe https://www.linkedin.com/in/chadbriscoe/Gregory Austin https://www.linkedin.com/in/gregoryaustin1/New NewsThe many uses of mini-organs: https://www.technologyreview.com/2024/03/08/1089612/the-many-uses-of-mini-organs/Image creditsBrain illustration: https://www.vecteezy.com/vector-art/658977-kawaii-cute-happy-brain-with-arms-and-legs UFO: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/swampthingy--675891856570360044/#Organoids #AI #QuantumComputing #HealthcareInnovation #DrugDiscovery #ClinicalResearch
