ASCO 2023 – Jaydev Thakkar

In our penultimate video from ASCO 2023, editor-in-chief Jonah Comstock touches base with Biofourmis chief operating officer Jaydev Thakkar.

Biofourmis works with pharma on accelerating drug development and with post-market monitoring of approved drugs.They discuss how AI and data are evolving in the life sciences space – not just using data to prove efficacy, but to manage patient care. And Thakkar explains how Biofourmis is using AI to predict and treatment side effects and move care to the home, safely.

They also discuss how AI has unlocked the potential of the sensor technologies we’ve had for some time, how technology should invisibly support care so providers can focus on the patient, and how to balance proprieties between outcomes, efficiency, patient experience, and clinical trial diversity.

Check out the video for an interesting dive into a tech company working alongside pharma and patients to make data-gathering easier.
