#19 Alex Gillespie on Language, Intelligence and Consciousness (00:35:50)
This week we decided to step aside from the usual digital health related conversations and dwell upon some of the bigger questions in life : What is consciousness? How is it that we share 99% of our DNA with Chimpanzees yet the human ability to communicate and cooperate is so unique?
Our guest this week is Dr. Alex Gillespie - Assistant Professor in the department of Psychological and Behavioural Science at the London School of Economics. He has been studying human communication from a social psychological perspective throughout his academic career and has written several books on the topic.

#18 | Alex Ksendzovsky on Consciousness, Brain Surgery and Entrepreneurship (00:28:59)
Alex Ksendzovsky is a neurosurgeon, researcher and entrepreneur working in Baltimore USA. His practice focuses on epilepsy and movement disorders, as well as brain tumours in ‘eloquent’ areas of the brain, for which he performs awake brain surgery. We discuss the origins of consciousness, the meaning of life, the future of brain research, motivation, the benefits of diversifying your work and what he has learned from his multicultural roots.

#16 | Joe Davids on Nanotechnology in Medicine (00:26:37)
We delve into nano this week with Dr Joe Davids - clinician and PhD candidate at Imperial College London. Join us as Joe explains what nano really is, how nano could completely change the neurosciences and why the future looks bright for medicine.
#15 | Lise Pape on Wearable Tech and Startups (00:17:37)
We discuss wearable technology with Walk With Path CEO - Lise Pape. Lise offers advice for those wishing to start a medical technology company and discusses her own realisations of the life-changing potential of medical technology
#14 | Brian Wong & Nina Hoernke on Poverty and Wealth in Health (00:53:27)
We question the fundamental assumptions in global health and development this week, including: How does power relate to global inequalities and how can we solve health disparities?
#13 | Lantana Ali & Nathan Shaw on Intelligence and Machine Learning (01:05:00)
Two computer scientists join us to tackle the big ideas in AI and medicine, including: how far will AI go in medicine? What does it mean to be intelligent? Can we answer the issue of over-medicalisation using digital technology?
#12 | Unni Kumar on AI and Human Behaviour (00:33:18)
This episode we discuss the Schiphol Airport toilets; the fake news epidemic; the human behaviour change project and iron deficiency anaemia management in India. Unni Kumar joins us live from Australia!
#11 | Iain Doig on Equitable AI for Global Health (00:34:42)
We chat artificial intelligence and digital health with Dr Iain Doig. Iain is a passionate advocate for equitable healthcare, having previously held the role of Global Health Education officer in the UK-based charity Students for Global Health. He is currently working as a Junior Doctor in the UK. We discuss artificial intelligence as applied to public health and whether technology has a role in healthcare provision for low- and middle-income settings across the world.

#10 | Accessible AI: Tech for People with Disabilities (00:16:14)
We discuss accessible technology for people with disabilities and focus on exemplar projects coming from the gaming and Big Tech industries.
#9 | Machines Vs Humans: Who Cares? (00:21:25)
What could the Imitation Game mean for patient care in modern medicine?
Alan Turing asked 'Can machines think?' in 1950. He predicted that by 2000 we would have a convincing answer to this question, but we still don't.
In this week’s discussion we dive deep in some blue sky thinking, exploring questions including: What is a machine? What distinguishes this from a human? And is the Turing Test an appropriate test to understand the role of AI within Medicine?
(There is also a little announcement at the end regarding our exciting future project!)
#8 | Racism in Racism Out: How Biased Data Creates Biased AI in Medicine (00:22:32)
Society as we know it is racist. There is a reason that the maternal mortality in black women is 5 times that of white women in the U.K. What is the nature of our unequal and unjust medical systems of today, and how does racist data play a part? We cover one of the most shocking examples of unethical research in history as well as the wider social determinants of health to explore this complex issue.
#7 | Holographic Heads-Up: Where the Virtual World Meets the Real (00:16:28)
The COVID crisis has provided a platform for technological innovation that is not dependent on inventing new technology from scratch but instead seeks to find novel ways of using existing technologies.
Virtual reality head-sets are an excellent example. Many of us have seen them and some have used them. This week we discuss how one trust in London is using the Microsoft HoloLens - a mixed reality headset- to reduce the infection exposure risk to health care professionals and reduce the amount of PPE being used without compromising on the standard of care offered to patients.
We take this a step further and discuss the broader implications of technology such as virtual and mixed reality head-sets on the way we practice and learn medicine.
#6 | Climate Change and Health: Will Machines Solve the Problem Humans Created? (00:15:13)
‘Climate change is the biggest global health threat of the 21st century’ according to The Lancet Countdown on health and climate change. Is it too late to do anything or do we still stand a chance?
This week, we look at exactly how climate change is linked with health and how AI is being used to mitigate the effects of climate change. We discuss the idea of precision agriculture and compare it to the promise of precision medicine made by AI.
#5 | The Mind, The Console and COVID (00:17:05)
Humans are inherently social animals. How then does a social animal cope without socialising? We have adapted to communicating with friends and family online, but is this level of social interaction enough to satisfy the social needs coded in our hunter-gatherer DNA?
Join us as we talk about the impacts of this sudden transition on our mental well being; how mental healthcare is adapting through the use of new technologies and how gaming could transform human interactions.
#4 | Bug-Busting AI: Research and Development on a SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine (00:15:04)
A groundbreaking new vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 virus has been developed in just 2 days!
How has AI helped us better understand the structure of SARS-CoV-2 virus?
Who is making the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine?
How are they making it?
How long will it take?
Hear us discuss these and more about how global collaboration is facilitating innovation at an unprecedented pace.
#3 | Creative COVID Cure: Can AI Save the World? (00:16:08)
AI is becoming mainstream in drug development. Vast resources and knowledge are being poured into the space. Why? And can we use it to find a treatment for COVID?
#2 | Apple x Google: Altruism or Opportunism? (00:27:15)
Apple and Google are collaborating on a framework for COVID-19 contact tracing. What could this mean for the future of technology in public health? Can Big Tech offer an effective solution to the pandemic? Join us for our conversation.
