Research led by #StanfordCDH's @jkim-1003.bsky.social, demonstrates how #AI & #NLP can transform real patient portal messages into actionable #CancerResearch ideas. Analyzing patient concerns, we found 1/3 of generated topics were highly meaningful & novel: bit.ly/3EovDkf

New research from #StanfordCDH's @jkim-1003.bsky.social & team analyzed 528k patient messages, developing AI to support clinicians with tailored diabetes care. AI is seen as highly useful for education and admin support, but deeper data integration is perceived as risky. go.nature.com/4jKaVKB

Practical Applications of GenAl in Health Behavior Change in LMICs: White Paper Virtual Launch Event The Stanford Center for Digital Health, in partnership with the Bay Area Global Health Alliance, was delighted to announce the release of a white paper on GenAI for Health in LMICs, with a virtual launch event held on March 26, 2025. In this discussion, we review the five key findings and hear from implementers in the field. Read and download the white paper here: https://cdh.stanford.edu/generative-ai-health-low-middle-income-countries The research was informed by a review of 250 projects, in-depth interviews, and organizations implementing GenAI solutions. The paper examines where GenAI is currently being used, the greatest successes, and how we can realize greater impact of GenAI both for behavior change and broader healthcare applications. Among others, it highlights recommendations such as the need for establishing standards for measurement and best practice, improving language and localization, and prioritizing investment in basic healthcare infrastructure alongside digital interventions. Speakers include: Abbey Kocan | Bay Area Global Health Alliance KX Jin | Advancing Health Online (AHO) Eleni Linos | Stanford Center for Digital Health Shawna Cooper | Audere David McAfee | Viamo Stephen Meyer | Viamo Karina Rios Michel | Girl Effect Jay Patel | Jacaranda Health Aman Khullar | Noora Health

Thank you to Bay Area Global Health Alliance for hosting a virtual event to discuss key findings from our new white paper on #GenAI for health in low- and middle-income countries! Watch it here: bit.ly/3RzTIXX #DigitalHealth

Can generative AI tackle global health problems? The director of the Stanford Center for Digital Health shares insight into how innovative artificial intelligence applications can help bridge health care gaps in low- and middle-income countries.

Excited to see #StanfordCDH's Dr. Eleni Linos featured in this @stanfordmedicine.bsky.social story on how #GenAI can positively impact #GlobalHealth: "With the right values, partnerships & ethical guardrails, AI can be the great equalizer for health." stan.md/4j0PBjx
