AI and Health Care: What the World Needs
The promise of artificial intelligence in health care appears so tantalizing and yet the actual tangible impact in the lives of health care professionals is only beginning to crystallize. We will review what the health care world needs from AI, promising examples of AI impact developed within and outside of Mayo Clinic, and the infrastructure and enablement capabilities created by Mayo Clinic Platform to advance the discovery, validation, and deployment of AI-powered solutions for health care.

Towards clinical adoption of AI in Pathology

Deep learning is a state-of-the-art pattern recognition technique that has proven extremely powerful for the analysis of digitized histopathological slides. In our work, we explored the application of deep learning across various pathology diagnostics, aiming to support pathologists by increasing accuracy and consistency while reducing workload. This presentation will address the existing translation gap: despite the development of numerous AI models, few have reached clinical implementation. We propose that the next critical step involves large-scale validation with pathologists to evaluate the added value of these algorithms in routine practice. Such studies are essential for certification but are currently lacking in our field, hindering the assessment of deep learning's true potential in pathology diagnostics.

LLM for Clinical Evidence Extraction, Retrieval, and Summarization
In medicine, our understanding of diseases, treatments, and preventive measures is perpetually advancing. Despite this, the existing framework of evidence-based medicine (EBM) faces formidable challenges from information overload, as no clinician can catch up with the explosive publication paces, and lacks a robust mechanism for the continuous integration of new evidence. The advent of Generative AI, exemplified by large language models (LLMs)signifies a potentially transformative development in the methodologies employed to collect, appraise, disseminate, and interact with clinical evidence. In this talk, I will discuss our research on addressing the "lost-in-the-middle" issue in evidence retrieval and the fine-tuning of LLMs for effective medical evidence summarization.

Data-Driven Medicine: Transforming Clinical Insights with Generative AI
Mayo Clinic is leveraging generative artificial intelligence to synthesize complex clinical information, develop diagnostic insights and predict best treatment options to enable clinicians to spend more time with the patient in front of them. These solutions will be built on the largest global, longitudinal patient dataset, curated by Mayo Clinic Platform. While distinct solutions exist today, the Generative AI program is developing an integrated system comprised of solutions that reduce administrative burden, improve the practice and transform healthcare.
