    TechBio Talks Episode 4: Highlander Health’s Amy Abernethy with Host Najat Khan

    In this episode of TechBio Talks, host Najat Khan, PhD, incoming CEO and President of Recursion, talks to Amy Abernethy, MD, PhD, cofounder of Highlander Health, about how structured, analyzable, real-world data is transforming healthcare and medicine. Amy is a physician, innovator, and executive who has pioneered oncology real-world evidence generation to address gaps in patient care and access.  They discuss the three “waves” of real-world data leading to today’s multimodal data; how that real-world data ties into patients’ longitudinal health story; and the difference between real-world data and real-world evidence. And they dive into how this data is driving major innovative shifts to improve clinical trials and drug discovery.  ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS ⏱️  (00:00) Introduction. (01:47) Defining Real-World Data (RWD) & Real-World Evidence (RWE): The difference between data as a byproduct of care and analyzed evidence. (03:16) The Three Waves of RWD: From claims data to EHRs, and now multimodal, longitudinal data (genomics, imaging). (05:49) Use Cases for RWE: Telling the story of what happened (retrospective) vs. planning for the future (clinical trial design). (06:38) RWE in Drug Discovery: Combining deep biological data with clinical phenotypes to find new targets. (09:14) Strategic Shift in Pharma: Moving RWE from a "replacement product" to a core strategic asset across the entire R&D lifecycle. (11:06) Regulatory Evolution: How FDA guidance on data quality and curation is enabling broader RWE adoption. (14:25) The Evidence Accelerator: How rapid-cycle meetings with the FDA during COVID-19 built regulatory familiarity with RWE. (16:18) Introducing Highlander Health: A dual-model approach (non-profit institute + for-profit investment arm) to accelerate clinical research. (21:48) AI’s Role in Evidence Generation: Using AI for data curation, study design optimization, and patient recruitment. (24:41) The "Mantra": AI requires high-quality data; we must go back to the roots of getting the data right. (27:47) What to Watch For: Disciplined, LLM-enabled data curation and the rise of prospective-retrospective hybrid study designs.

    TechBio Talks Episode 2: Broad Institute's Anne Carpenter with Host Chris Gibson

    In the second episode of TechBio Talks, host Chris Gibson talks to Anne Carpenter, Institute Scientist and Imaging Platform Senior Director at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, a pioneer in image-based profiling, who played a key role in Recursion’s origin story.   Anne talks about her early discovery that phenomics-based profiling could be as powerful as mRNA profiling; how she decides what data to make by determining the problems she can solve well; how these tools can be deployed to produce safer chemicals; the critical role of open science in advancing new technologies; and why the race to the virtual cell “is more like a mosh pit.”  ⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00: Welcome to TechBio Talks 02:33: The dinner conversation that helped lay the foundation for Recursion 03:06: Discovering that cell morphology could be as powerful as mRNA profiling 05:32: Behind the open-source tool, CellProfiler 06:21: The importance of relevant biology 07:21: In drug discovery, framing the problem is the real bottleneck 08:55: Which types of data are most important for drug discovery 10:52: Why we need open data 12:30: What it’s like to see others utilize and advance her technology 14:02: How the virtual cell race is “more like a mosh pit” 15:27: Evolving the definition of the virtual cell  17:38: From systemization to major industry shift 18:51: Anne’s “big bold bet” 20:48: The proposed cost to test existing medicines against rare diseases 22:29: Parting thoughts: “If you are interested in data sciences and you're tired of mRNA profiles – check out image-based data”
