Newsday: AI in Drug Development, Complex Care, and Tech-Driven Safety

Our CEO, Laura O’Toole, joins Sarah Richardson from This Week Health for a new episode of Newsday. They question the real impact of AI on the pace of drug development—could it genuinely reduce the 15
year long process to bring new treatments to patients? They discuss the role of clinicians in
embracing automation, but will traditional mindsets hold back these advances? How can healthcare
systems prioritize critical innovations without overwhelming staff with too many solutions? The
conversation shifts to the rising complexity of care: with patients living longer but dealing with
more chronic conditions, how can healthcare innovate while managing financial strains?
