We treat patients, not data | Jens Kleesiek | TEDxHelenen Park
In this talk Jens Kleesiek argues that while medical data and AI can provide valuable insights in healthcare, it should not replace a human-centered approach towards patients. He distinguishes the opportunities AI presents for healthcare into workflow enhancements, such as efficiency improvements, and Medical Intelligence, the practice of utilizing data for personalized treatments. Despite the exciting potential of AI for healthcare, including the prospect of an AI personal health assistant, he stresses that data should support, not substitute, the crucial human relationship with the patient in healthcare. Jens Kleesiek is a full professor at the Institute for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (IKIM) of the University Medical Center Essen in Germany. He studied medicine in Heidelberg, specializing in radiology and medical informatics. Jens also studied Bioinformatics and holds a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Hamburg. He spent several years in management positions developing medical software for consumers and healthcare professionals. At IKIM he's on the mission to bring AI algorithms into the clinic. To accomplish this 'code to clinic' approach, he and his team are working on modern cloud technologies, interoperable data structures, and cutting-edge AI methods.
