2020 was a challenging year for the NCIMI team and its partners.

In this mini series, CEO Claire Bloomfield talks to partners who have stepped up to the challenge during 2020 and continue to do so in 2021.

In part two, Claire is joined by John Kalafut – Chief scientist for digital/informatics research at GE Healthcare.

He describes himself as: “A real, driven innovator that loves to find and push boundaries in large and small organizations. I am very good at finding routes and paths through multi-dimensional problems requiring a blend of healthcare domain, scientific, computational, and product development acumen. I’m most proud of the projects and efforts that are now used in clinical practice around the world.”

They discuss:

-  Missing seeing each other face to face to create ideas and collaborate

-  Trusting AI to take the place of a human in a busy clinic

-  How to choose the right tech for the patient

-  The end game – how AI tech is having a positive impact and improving patient wellbeing

-  Challenges of working with a hardworking, stretched health care sector in the UK.

-  Innovating the workflow for AI and healthcare

-  First Vs next generations of AI application in medical imaging
