“Anyone who knows anything about drug development would say it is a slow and painful process”. Cat Miller is CTO at Flatiron Health, a software company that uses technology to “clean up all the gunk in the trials industry”. Flatiron helps researchers develop new cancer treatments by making clinical trials run smarter and faster. They also identify trial data that lead to new treatments, and help doctors manage and improve patient care.

On this episode, Cat breaks down how Flatiron takes piles of data from “hot garbage”  to deep insights that lead to innovative cancer treatments. She also discusses Flatiron’s approach with AI, why she believes there are no wasted skillsets, and how her experience as an actor has helped her steer Flatiron’s team.
