In today’s show, we are joined by Patricia Maguire, Professor of Biochemistry at University College Dublin and Kevin Marshall, Head of Education at Microsoft Ireland. In the show, we will talk about AI_PREMie, which combines machine learning and cutting-edge omics methodologies to develop a new platform for the diagnosis and treatment of pre-eclampsia.
Pre-eclampsia is extremely difficult to diagnose and results in the deaths of 50,000 mothers and 500,000 babies every year. The team at AI_PREMie are creating an affordable tool to closely observe pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia and prevent unnecessary adverse outcomes for both mothers and babies. The team were a recent finalist in the Best Application of AI to achieve Social Good at the 2021 AI Awards.
Topics include:
AI_PREMie’s work in diagnosing pre-eclampsia in mothers & their babies
The multi-disciplinary team behind this great work
Challenges to overcome such as data privacy and the impact of the pandemic
Results they are seeing from the pilot project
The role of Microsoft Ireland in combining technology with education
Other interesting AI in Healthcare projects they are involved with
