This is the second part of our discussion on the evolution of artificial intelligence and its impact on life sciences with guests from Microsoft and IQVIA.

We dive into regulation, real-time management, and AI's various applications and how it can streamline different processes.

We also discuss the cost and affordability of AI; the tremendous investment required and when holding off on new tech is valuable.

Hear how AI is highlighting society's flaws and may become the catalyst for societal change.

The weight loss market sees more ups and downs - Altimmune joins the fray and sees a stock jump while Pfizer experiences setbacks; and European Medicines Agency seeks additional information as part of its ongoing review of the potential risk of suicide and self-harm thoughts associated with the class. Meanwhile, AbbVie buys ImmunoGen for a cool $10B and scores a win with Teliso-V as ADC momentum continues to build.

Plus, the FDA investigates malignacies linked to CAR-T.

BioSpace's Lori Ellis, Greg Slabodkin and Tyler Patchen discuss.

Patient behavior has always had an influence on clinical trials - so how do we contend with missing and/or irregular data now that it is feeding AI models? And how do providers continue to work with patients to optimize and grow data pools?

This is the third and final part of a discussion focused upon data bias, accuracy, access and the future of AI in drug development.
