New research provides a glimpse of an exciting future where AI can broadly and deeply contribute to healthcare. Med-Gemini models demonstrate powerful multimodal capabilities with the potential to assist in clinician, researcher, and patient workflows. Learn how: https://goo.gle/3KKnXIu
Today, we are excited to announce a collaboration between Taiwan’s National Health Insurance Administration, Google Health, and Google Cloud to develop AI models for better predicting and preventing Taiwan’s most common chronic diseases. Up first: an application to predict and manage the risk of complications for the more than 2 million Taiwanese people living with type 2 diabetes. Learn more: https://goo.gle/4aZxzcZ
Everyone’s health and wellness journey is unique, and AI can help create more personalized health experiences to match this individuality. We're researching how fine-tuning Gemini models for personal health and wellness can unlock novel insights and interactions for consumers. Imagine an AI that not only understands your health data from wearables but also gives you personalized insights and recommendations, like a virtual health coach. Our two new research papers explore this in depth: Towards a Personal Health Large Language Model (PH-LLM): We've fine-tuned Gemini models to create PH-LLM, which generates personalized sleep and fitness recommendations comparable to human experts. Transforming Wearable Data into Personal Health Insights using Large Language Model Agents: This agent system leverages code generation and information retrieval to analyze your wearable data, providing detailed insights into your health patterns. These advances demonstrate how AI can help us better understand our health data and make more informed decisions about our well-being. We look forward to continuing research into how generative AI can enable novel health experiences. Read more: https://goo.gle/3RnwHbl
From empowering consumers with credible health information, to helping clinicians and enterprises increase access to care, improve care quality, and bring joy back to medicine. Google's Chief Health Officer, Dr. Karen DeSalvo, shared ways we're working to advance AI-driven progress in healthcare with Eric Larsen of Advisory Board. Listen Now: https://goo.gle/4cdtl2s
We're deeply encouraged by the advances we continue to see in generative AI's ability to investigate medical imagery models and datasets. Way to go, Google Research! https://lnkd.in/gm-T9V5F
Machine learning models show great potential as assistive tools in healthcare. Here we present a framework to help ensure medical imaging models are developed responsibly by better understanding how they come to their predictions. The framework leverages generative AI paired with expert review to identify and interpret visual cues associated with model outputs. https://goo.gle/3V9i3oZ
📢 New research! Our latest study demonstrates the potential of Fitbit-based interventions to improve health outcomes and reduce healthcare costs for insufficiently active adults. 🔍 What we did: We developed a simulation model to evaluate the impact of a Fitbit-based physical activity intervention on physical activity levels, chronic disease incidence, and healthcare costs over 15 years. 📊 Key findings: Our analysis reveals that Fitbit interventions could lead to lower costs and increased quality-adjusted life years compared to usual care, as well as substantial cost savings. This is primarily due to the benefits of greater physical activity, leading to reduced short-term healthcare costs and lower incidence of chronic diseases like diabetes and hypertension. 💡 Why it matters: These findings highlight the potential of wearable technology to not only improve individual health but also generate substantial cost savings for healthcare payers.
