Dr. Robert Pearl joins Dr. Erich Schramm to discuss the burgeoning role AI will play in the American healthcare system and how doctors may be able to leverage the systems to spend more time with patients who need interventions and achieve better patient outcomes for all. They spend time comparing AI outcomes not to an ideal but to the current system, and discuss pilot programs that have shown better triage, intervention, and (surprisingly) patient empathy scores with AI-integrated systems. They also briefly mention some of the dangers of generative AI and the need to tackle this issue early with incoming medical students.

Dr. Pearl's book, ChatGPT, MD: How AI-Empowered Patients & Doctors Can Take Back Control of American Medicine is available from his site, robertpearlmd.com

Dr. Michael Koren joins Kevin Geddings to contrast the fragmented NBC coverage of the Winter Olympics to the more comprehensive level of attention and care granted by clinical research staff. The doctor expresses woe at the lack of a national "moment" that should have been granted by back-to-back men's and women's hockey victories, caused by weak broadcast coverage. Dr. Koren gives a preview of current and upcoming clinical research studies in the pipeline and explains that research staff dive deep into each participant's individual circumstances, medical history, and needs to make sure the science and the participant receive the attention needed for a good trial and a good participant experience.

Dr. Erich Schramm and Dr. Michael Koren lead a presentation on diabetes and obesity in front of a live audience. The doctors talk about the role willpower plays, how ultra-processed foods hijack our brain, and what a healthy diet looks like. They also discuss the myriad signaling molecules in the body that tell us we're hungry or full and when to digest all that food. The doctors also touch on the growing line of medications that are being used to control diabetes and obesity, and how the two diseases play off of each other, which makes breaking the cycle difficult. The doctors close by talking about the surprising role a desert lizard plays in current weight-loss medications, and a sneak preview of other investigational medications on the horizon.

Dr. Michael Koren joins Kevin Geddings to talk about what the Super Bowl can teach us about medicine. The doctor discusses on how players get two weeks off to prepare (and heal) for the Super Bowl. He then relates this to a growing trend in investigational medicine where pharmaceutical companies are searching for longer-term medications for blood pressure and other conditions that only need to be taken once a month or less. The hope is that this "time off" from taking medicines will allow for better outcomes. Dr. Koren describes a specific investigational study looking at a potential monthly blood pressure medication and explains that the relaxed schedule may take the pressure off patients who take these medications.
