I'm seriously excited to collaborate with Karina Ruzinov at Ascertain. Karina brings incredible experience and we're thrilled to have her leadership in our mission to bring effective automation to healthcare. Humbled by the talent that I get to work with at Ascertain.
After nearly 7 rewarding years at Transfix, I’m thrilled to share that I’ll be joining Ascertain as their Head of Engineering! My time at Transfix has been an incredible journey. I’ve had the pleasure of working with amazing colleagues and diving deep into the logistics industry, with invaluable mentorship and support along the way. I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished together and look forward to seeing Transfix thrive as a SaaS provider. As I start at Ascertain on Monday, I’m excited to collaborate with Mark Michalski and the team to create outstanding healthcare products. I was truly impressed by Ascertain’s customer focus and their goals to enhance efficiency in hospital settings. One of my first priorities will be hiring a Senior Full Stack (FE-leaning) Engineer. If you’re interested or know someone who might be, please reach out! Thank you to everyone who has supported me along this journey, and a special thanks to Matthew Kendall Clark and Lunch for reaching out about this exciting opportunity.

Artificial intelligence is here to help us improve the standard of care and quality of life. At Optain we harness the power of AI to open a window to your health through your eyes. Assure+ suite of products help screen for vision-threatening eye diseases like Glaucoma and provide cardiovascular health assessment. #AI #healthcare #digitalhealth
Glaucoma, a group of progressive optic neuropathies, is characterised by the slow degeneration of retinal ganglion cells and their axons. This leads to a distinctive appearance of the optic disc and a corresponding pattern of visual loss. In this article, Dr Yvette Wang delves into major imaging modalities in glaucoma, and the current applications of artificial intelligence available to assist with effective screening and management of this sight-threatening disease...Read More https://lnkd.in/gmjbZbYb #spon #AI #Glaucoma Optain (Australia) Babak Asgari

What we think of as modern AI is really a set of different tools all based, effectively, on the concept of artificial neural networks. Over the last decade there’s been a progressive unveiling of different formulations of neural networks: CNNs, RL, transformers and LLMs... These formulations have also progressively unlocked new capabilities—for example, CNNs opened the world of AI-based image processing up to us in the radiology community around 10 years ago and has been transforming the field ever since, well before LLMs and gen AI hit the scene. In short: every once in a while, AI evolves and gets new abilities. While it's hard to predict what's coming next, state space models are shaping out as a promising next step in the evolution of this technology. They can enable lower cost, more accurate AI agents--we explore this further in our new blog post on Towards AI. We’re exploring state space models at Ascertain because we think it is a great fit for agent-led automation tasks in healthcare and beyond. Big thanks to Vineet Tiruvadi, MD, PhD and Marek S. for the incredible work in describing the fundamentals of this tech in our new blog post.
