Cory Janssen—AltaML| Exploring the Basics of AI/ML in Healthcare [Ep.25]
In episode 25 of ReBootHealth (https://www.reboothealth.io/), I speak with Cory Janssen. Cory is unique compared to previous guests with a background in finance as the founder of Investopedia and now operating AltaML. I’ve spoken to Cory on several occasions and really enjoy how he uses his business and founder experience to create a lens of AI/ML in healthcare. Today’s conversation focused on several high-level concepts including the challenges of building AI startups, regulations, Canada’s role in the future of AI/ML In healthcare, and the importance of data with maybe an overemphasis by some organizations on its value. To be clear, Cory brings a fresh perspective on what it takes to
build AI/ML companies in any sector, but it’s clear that despite the challenges, he remains keen on building something massive in this industry! As always, I hope you find the episode valuable.

Frank Rudzicz—Winterlight Labs| Exploring the Basics of AI/ML in Healthcare [Ep.24]
In episode 24 of ReBootHealth (https://www.reboothealth.io/), I speak with Frank Rudzicz. There’s been so much ‘hype’ around the use of artificial intelligence/machine learning in life sciences that I wanted to get a solid footing for where we are and what’s possible. Now this is a big topic and one show cannot do it justice, but as they say, you have to start somewhere. Frank and I started out with his own journey, moved to some high-level definitions in LLMs, discussed Winterlight Labs, and challenges for founders, and then moved on to elements Canada might need to accelerate AI/ML in healthcare and finally possibilities for where ML might be deployed. On this show, we only touched on AI in surgery, which I think could be a fascinating topic all on its own, so hopefully, we’ll get Frank back (…if he wasn’t too traumatized by my show!). As always, I hope you find the episode valuable.

Mitch Jones—Chemomab Therapeutics| When Culture meets Talent in Life Sciences [Ep.23]
In episode 23 of ReBootHealth (https://www.reboothealth.io/), I speak with Mith Jones. Mitch was referred to me by a previous guest of the show and as a Canadian in the US life sciences ecosystem, I was curious to get a bit more on his perspective. I’ll admit this show won’t be for everyone, but during our pre-show chat, I came to quickly appreciate the depth of knowledge and skill that Mitch brings to the therapeutics arena. I couldn’t help but think if we just had a “few more Mitch(es) north of the border” we would be able to make some real strides in closing the talent gap. Mitch was also one of the few guests that highlighted and corrected my show notes (thanks Mitch!!) …the first one to dig in and a sure sign of the ‘real deal’ if there ever was one. We touched on many topics including the influence of culture on venture creation, critical components of developing clinical programs, the long duration of life sciences innovation, and future technologies to watch. As always, I hope you find the episode valuable.
