Detecting Alzheimer’s faster
Artificial Intelligence, or AI, technology is certain to have a revolutionary impact on health care, says Baoxin Li, the associate director and a professor in the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence, part of the Fulton Schools. Li sees AI impacting the ways in which diseases will be diagnosed and treated. His outlook is confirmed by recent National Health Institute, or NIH, decisions to invest millions of dollars into ventures to use AI to do research on Alzheimer’s disease, including work to better detect the disease and reveal its warning signs. One new NIH grant will support training ASU doctoral students to build medical tools to treat and diagnose neurodegenerative diseases.
