What's the link between quantum physics, AI, and drug discovery?Maximilien Levesque might be the perfect person to answer. A former theoretical physicist, he realised his research could transform drug development by fundamentally understanding how molecules interact at the atomic level. In 2019, he co-founded Aqemia with Emmanuelle Martiano Rolland to turn that vision into reality. Their mission is bold: to design new molecules, atom by atom, capable of binding "undruggable" therapeutic

Can we learn from extreme cancer survivors to develop new treatments?This is the bet that Nicolas Wolikow and his team at Cure51 are making. Backed by the world's top cancer centers and specialists, they work around the clock to build the largest-ever health dataset of patients who defied the odds—people diagnosed with stage 4 cancer who were given a few months to live, yet survived more than five years. The goal is to understand what makes their biology unique and what characterises their

Disclaimer: Blythe and I both work for Roche; nevertheless, all opinions expressed in this episode are our own and do not necessarily represent the position of our employer.What's really behind the term "real-world data" in clinical science? And what can it actually be used for? I asked Blythe Adamson of Flatiron Health to find out the answer. It turns out real-world data is all the medical data collected in the “real world”, meaning outside of any clinical trial. In other words, it's the

How can we solve the puzzle of regulating AI in healthcare? This is the question that Dr. Ricardo Baptista Leite and his team at HealthAI - The Global Agency for Responsible AI in Health ask themselves every day. Their goal? To help international organizations, governments, and local stakeholders strike a balance between regulation and access to the latest innovation in the field. A thorny equation, considering the speed of progress in AI and the time it takes to establish a regulatory framework

When we think of the term "medicine," one of the symbols that comes to mind is the stethoscope.Its use in almost every physical examination by healthcare providers makes it one of the most iconic and widely recognized medical devices. Despite the emergence of digital technologies and the first electronic stethoscopes, their operating principle and design still rely heavily on the patent filed by Dr. David Littmann in the 1960s. But in the era of miniaturization and artificial intelligence, there

Do you have to come close to death to invent a groundbreaking medical device? That’s certainly not something we would wish upon every medtech entrepreneur. But it is the story of Shavini Fernando and the connected earring OxiWear that she developed. Shavini lives with Eisenmenger syndrome, a condition where the two ventricles of her heart communicate. This condition dramatically increases the pressure in her pulmonary vasculature and severely limits the oxygen carried in her blood. It’s a

One of the greatest fantasies in medicine is to one day be able to offer any patient a therapy perfectly adapted to their profile and needs.A "personalized" medicine. The term was introduced to the public in 1999 through an article in The Wall Street Journal titled "New Era of Personalized Medicine: Targeting Drugs for Each Unique Genetic Profile." The enthusiasm for these next-generation therapies was fueled by advances in DNA sequencing, which hinted at future discoveries in genomics and rapid

According to the WHO, unsafe medication practices and medication errors are a leading cause of avoidable harm in health systems across the globe.In the European Union alone, this translates to nearly 200,000 deaths annually. The magnitude of this problem has led to global initiatives such as "Medication Without Harm," launched in 2017, aiming to reduce medical errors by 50% over five years. Although there is a need for more data on the results of this initiative, we are far from having reached the

What will the future of surgery look like?According to Dr. George Papagiannakis, we must count on virtual simulation. After all, simulators are an integral part of professional training in highly demanding fields like aviation or F1. So why not medicine? The approach might seem futuristic, but George and his team at ORamaVR share a vision that makes a lot of sense. Integrating extended reality in surgery means increasing the volume of hours spent operating. It means preparing each surgery on a

Our gut contains a world of microorganisms that impact many aspects of our health, well beyond the gastrointestinal system.In fact, more than 30 trillion bacteria, archaea, fungi, and viruses live in the digestive tract of every human, a number that is higher than the number of human cells that make up our body! Each microbiome is unique to an individual, and its genetic heritage represents approximately 100 times that of the human genome. This field is fascinating and science is advancing rapidly,
