AI, MD
It’s like your brain got turned into math — this AI model mimics how neurons talk.
What is a neural network?
AI squints at your chest — and sees pneumonia before the doctor does.
What is an X-ray?
AI looked deep into the eyes… and diagnosed this common glucose-related illness.
What is diabetes?
AI helps fast-forward this billion-dollar, decade-long scientific race.
What is drug development?
Your health data is gold — AI must protect this.
What is patient privacy?
You teach it with flashcards — this learning method uses labeled medical data.
What is supervised learning?
These AI models are vision-obsessed and love pixels more than puppies.
What are CNNs (Convolutional Neural Networks)?
Made by Google, this AI went retinal and may save millions from blindness.
What is DeepMind?
Ever seen a molecule solve a jigsaw puzzle? AI can simulate this puzzle.
What is molecular docking?
If an AI makes a life-altering decision, but no one — not even its developers — can explain how it reached that conclusion, this ethical concern arises.
What is the black box problem?
No labels, no problem! This AI technique groups similar patients without any hints.
What is unsupervised learning?
This scanning machine sounds like a sci-fi portal and uses magnets, not radiation.
What is an MRI?
Rows, columns, and lots of squares — this chart shows if your AI is a good diagnostician.
What is a confusion matrix?
These AI models predict whether a drug is a cure or a dud — before clinical trials.
What are predictive models?
If your AI only learned from one population, its decisions may cause this unfair result.
What is algorithmic bias (or disparity)?
Think of a robot getting treats for good diagnosis — this is learning by trial and error.
What is reinforcement learning?
AI’s not perfect — these “oops” moments are when it thinks disease is there, but it’s not.
What are false positives?
Wristbands of the future? These devices feed your heartbeats to diagnostic AI.
What is a smartwatch (like Apple Watch or Fitbit)?
No old drugs here — this futuristic method has AI inventing new compounds from scratch.
What is de novo drug design?
Can you explain why the AI said “tumor”? Doctors want this.
What is explainability (or interpretability)?
When diagnosing cancer, this stat measures how many real cases the AI catches.
What is sensitivity?
This U-shaped neural network is a rockstar for highlighting tumors and organs.
What is a U-Net?
It starts with chest pain and ends in code blue — AI can predict this cardiac emergency.
What is a heart attack?
They don’t just create art — these models invent new medicines too.
What are GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks)?
Before reaching hospitals, AI devices need a thumbs-up from this U.S. regulator.
What is the FDA (Food and Drug Administration)?
