Show Notes

Robert Glicksman (George Washington University Law School) speaks about how provisions affecting climate change, which he recently published in the New England Journal of Medicine, will have substantial health effects on the American public. We also talk to Art Papier, MD, who is dedicated to applying machine learning and AI to improve accuracy in dermatology diagnoses among non-dermatologists to diagnose skin conditions (34% improvement), save time, and enhance patient-physician communication.
