AI for Personalized Medicine

Increasingly sophisticated and powerful, artificial intelligence has the potential to usher in a new era of precision, or personalized, medicine. AI-powered medical interventions could improve diagnosis and treatment by sensing, analyzing, and responding to the data our bodies generate through brain signals, sweat, and more. Electrical and medical engineer Azita Emami (Caltech's Andrew and Peggy Cherng Professor of Electrical Engineering and Medical Engineering) discusses how her lab incorporates AI into medical devices to improve health and enhance quality of life. The conversation focuses on early seizure detection and a brain-machine interface that people who are paralyzed can use to move robotic limbs or operate computers using only their intentions.
