Generative artificial intelligence (genAI) uses hundreds of millions, sometimes billions, of data points to train itself to produce realistic and innovative outputs that can mimic human-created content. Its applications include personalized recommendations for online shoppers, creating audio and visual content and accelerating engineering design. In healthcare, possible genAI uses include enhancing imaging technologies, predicting the […]
New continuous glucose monitoring sensors (small sensors that penetrate the skin to measure glucose levels in real time) are now hitting the wearables market for use among individuals without diabetes. Despite a lack of research showing that using these sensors improves health outcomes in individuals without diabetes, there is a growing interest among this population. […]
Diana Anderson Diana Anderson, MD, M.Arch, assistant professor of neurology, has received a one-year, $48,902 Bridging Bioethics Research & Policymaking grant from the Greenwall Foundation for her project “Improving Long-Term Care Facility Design through Bioethical Peer Review.” Anderson’s past research has shown that the built space of healthcare environments can function as a healthcare intervention, […]
The study was done by researchers at BU Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine, BMC’s Center of Excellence in Sickle Cell Disease, and the BU Evans Center for Implementation and Improvement Sciences.
