Episode notes

I was at CHOP for 14 years. It was my entirety of my professional career after college. So that's all I knew. I loved it. And yeah, so I led a couple of engineering. By the time I left, I was a director of engineering. We had a dedicated education team in this larger program. My teams would interact with them very much to create video content,. guides, things like that to sort of how to navigate this environment and use it effectively.

In this episode, Jon is joined by Byron Ruth, Director of Developer Relations at Synadia, a software company focused on cloud-native messaging and data streaming platforms to enable the next generation of connected digital experiences. With over ten years of experience in engineering, he is focused on building systems and tools to facilitate developer interaction.

They explore the challenges and innovations in developer education, the definition of Informatics, and the challenge of teaching researchers who may need to gain expertise in informatics. They also discuss the shifts to the role of AI and machine learning in healthcare, the development of Nats, and the potential of using Nats by example as a tool for generating documentation and developer education resources.
