Driving Research with Ted Giovanis

Welcome to Driving Research hosted by Ted Giovanis, founder and president of the Jayne Koskinas Ted Giovanis Foundation for Health and Policy (JKTG Foundation) and team owner/driver of TeamTGM a championship-winning race team that competes in the Michelin Pilot Challenge. Ted uses his racing background to drive research forward, accelerating how we discover, diagnose, and treat cancer. 

This episode: Elliot Fishman, M.D., director of diagnostic imaging and body CT and professor of Radiology and Radiological Science in the Department of Oncology and Department of Surgery at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. His work focuses on computer applications in radiology, advanced clinical applications of CT scanning including AI-driven diagnostics, and medical education.

This episode: Paul Macklin, PhD, Associate Professor at Indiana University’s Department of Intelligent Systems Engineering and Associate Dean in the Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering bringing a math background to cancer research. His lab develops open source simulation tools for modeling with an emphasis on cancer immunology. His latest work, a collaboration among researchers that are part of JKTG’s research network, Macklin created a virtual cell lab that lets researchers and clinicians test cancer treatments in simulation to identify the most effective options.
