May 2025
In medical research, Artificial Intelligence is a game-changer with its power to collect and cross-analyze masses of data and lab findings to find new discoveries. And more, its ability to be trained to unlock answers to specific medical questions offers a quantum leap in refining diagnoses and treatments.
In this episode of What Makes Up Your Mind, Dr. Kilian Pohl (professor in Stanford’s Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, and by courtesy, in Electrical Engineering) explains the basics of creating and using AI tools for improving mental health research, including in adolescent substance use, HIV, and lifelong brain development and aging.
Listen in on how Dr. Pohl sees this technology bringing better mental healthcare to the entire world.
