How AI can unlock the mysteries of our health, with Kevin Slavin

Pioneers of AI

The human microbiome plays a large role in our health, but it’s something we don’t yet fully grasp. Understanding microbes and how they affect our health requires a lot of computing power, which is expensive and time-consuming. Kevin Slavin says AI can help. Slavin, an entrepreneur and dynamic thinker in the field of metagenomics, believes understanding microbiomes is key to improving our health and even our communities. With AI, he has worked to uncover how microbiomes impact our bodies and the environmental biome in which we live. In this episode, we explore how microbes shape us, how AI can accelerate our understanding of them, and more ways AI can transform our health.
