Hot off the press! Our latest paper led by @fernpizza , understanding how plasmids evolve inside individual cells. These small pieces of self-replicating DNA live inside bacteria and can transfer antibiotic resistance genes, but they also compete with one another to replicate. 1/

Great work on ML-enabled surgical preference cards by @SeanPerezMD and the @UCSDHealth team in collaboration with @DataScienceAll1

Optimizing surgical preference cards via regression analysis of historical supply use resulted in notable cost savings and reduced unused items, particularly in colorectal surgery, which saw a 55.8% reduction in supply waste. https://t.co/ZtCx8kwh22

.@Vashishtrv successfully trained UCSF-GPT–a 1.3 billion-parameter clinical foundation base model–in under 11 hrs using UCSF’s CoreHPC infrastructure. Same process previously required eight-10 months–a 660-800 times improvement in training time. Story: https://t.co/ILgAP0qQ8O

Presenting at American Heart Association conferences is more than a milestone—it’s a family tradition. #AHA25 Vice Chair @bnallamo proudly continues the legacy with his daughter Janaki, a high school student presenting a poster at #ReSS25. ❤️🫀

Precision Medicine – making clinical decisions based on nuanced analyses of patients' personal characteristics, including genetics – has been "just around the corner" for >30 years. In my new Substack, I describe why AI is poised to deliver on the promise. https://t.co/j2U3x4EaTD

Our latest in @Health_Affairs: We assessed the strength of evidence across all FDA-authorized digital therapeutics & show why, despite meeting clinical endpoints, pivotal trial data to-date have struggled to inspire confidence among clinicians & payers. https://t.co/2i6CoDXgsh

Little is known about the evidence to support prescription digital therapeutics, which are digital tools that rely primarily on software for diagnosis or treatment that have indications for use...

Manuscript review requests are like poking one bee and getting the whole dang hive buzzing after you! Say yes to one, and suddenly you’re swarmed with a zillion more “review this, please!” emails.

Glad to see @HeyEpic outline a vision for AI agents integrated into EHR workflows for clinicians ("Art"), administrators ("Penny"), and patients ("Emmie"). We need it all and I am particularly excited about what this means for our patients (1/4 🧵)
