The 2 Minute Medicine® Podcast- AI Roundup 1

In this episode, we kick things off with a deep dive into the UK’s miONCO-Dx trial, an AI-powered blood test that detects 12 common cancers with 99 % accuracy and could one day replace colonoscopies. Backed by £2.4 million in NHS funding and already analyzing its first wave of samples, the study exemplifies Britain’s push for tech-driven early cancer detection. Then in the second half of the episode, we begin with a discussion about Emory Healthcare’s AI-enhanced virtual nursing program and its success in cutting patient falls. Then we take a closer look at Insilico Medicine’s $110 million funding round and how its Pharma.AI platform is shrinking drug-discovery timelines. After that, we examine real-world NHS data showing the Limbic Care chatbot’s impact on therapy attendance and recovery rates. Finally, we discuss Aura, a new AI app that helps parents spot early signs of emotional distress in children by analyzing online behavior.
