Check out #MyYearInBooks @goodreads to discover the 64 books I read in 2024! https://t.co/yzlyqMRXeo

New from @instituteGC: a proposal for Lovelace Disruptive Invention Labs Is a better science possible, & how can we build it? 🏗️ Britain should pioneer a complementary model for research at the intersection of science & engineering – inverting core assumptions of modern public

Great to see Professor @pearsekeane's collaborative initiative with @YihTham, driven by synthetic fundus image generation, represented among the first recipients of the @UCL - @NUSingapore Research & Innovation Collaboration Fund: https://t.co/9fGWPDAEs1 @UCLBrainScience

People interested in applied metascience and what the future of UK science and technology should be - I suggest setting aside some reading time in next two days. @Lyan82 @adjajadikerta have something special coming out tomorrow :)

Reminder! Join us next Thursday for our next Coffee Hour with Dr Paul Nderitu and learn how AI is helping detect & predict diabetic eye disease. 📅 20 Nov, 3-4 pm 📍Coffee Junction near @Moorfields Everyone welcome: https://t.co/cm3Pnap5Yf @MoorfieldFriend | @ucleye

INSIGHT has been awarded £3.7 million in funding by @The_MRC and @NIHRresearch to expand from @Moorfields and link national health data resources #oculomics Led by @pearsekeane, the 4-year project will be delivered together with @UCLeye https://t.co/BgPLkBCbaq

I crossed an interesting threshold yesterday, which I think many other mathematicians have been crossing recently as well. In the middle of trying to prove a result, I identified a statement that looked true and that would, if true, be useful to me. 1/3

The UK is a great country with an extraordinary history. Our stagnation is real, but it's fixable and worth fixing. Enjoyed giving this talk at @lfg_uk last week and so encouraged by the optimistic responses I've had from people who are building a brilliant future for Britain 🚀

Prof @pearsekeane has been elected to @theNAMedicine in recognition of his pioneering role developing medical artificial intelligence in ophthalmology. @UCLeye @Moorfields @MoorfieldsBRC https://t.co/cz3TPXoWYU

In conversation with @OphthoMag, our colleague @pnderitu89 describes a world-first initiative with @pearsekeane's lab at @Moorfields @UCLeye - building a medical AI model trained on 100 million eye images from more than 65 diverse countries.

👁️ Professor @pearsekeane (@UCLEye) to lead new project using AI to transform routine eye checks into tools for detecting early signs of conditions such as heart disease and dementia. https://t.co/aP3AbmcGDN

Well done Hellena 🙌

How does a general-purpose foundation model like Gemini 1.5 pro compare with a domain-specific medical foundation model like RETFound in detecting diabetic retinopathy (DR)? Colleagues at @Moorfields @UCLeye, @MoorfieldsBRC explored the capabilities of the two models

New Post: What does the makeup of the UK's elite mean for how the state and economy operates? I loved Dan Wang's new book, and tried to understand if the UK is, as he calls the US, a lawyerly society.

An AI tool can accurately predict when young people with sight-threatening #kerataconus need treatment to prevent vision loss. Research led by @Moorfields with INSIGHT, @UCLeye, supported by @NIHRresearch, @EyeCharity, @MoorfieldsBRC, @ESCRSofficial 🔗 https://t.co/NdaIdSAnFp

The experience has also unlocked the patriot in me. I sense a growing set of talented people are starting to commit their careers to ensuring that whatever they work on is in some way a service to attempting to revive the UK. I know that I will try to do the same.

My most longstanding collaborator 😀🙌 @Denniston_Ophth

An ambitious research consortium is building the world’s first healthcare AI foundation model with globally representative data - trained on 100 million eye images from 65+ countries. The initiative #GlobalRETFound is described today in @NatureMedicine https://t.co/M62Ps1AtYI

Proud to work with @JosefHuemer1 This funding will lead to some really impactful work 👌
