How Predictive AI Can Optimize Business Processes In Healthcare
Finally, the goal of any healthcare organization is to provide the best possible care to patients. Predictive AI can contribute significantly to this goal by enabling more accurate diagnoses, tailored treatment plans and earlier interventions.
From the patient’s perspective, this translates to better health outcomes, reduced hospital stays and increased satisfaction with their care. For healthcare organizations, improved patient experiences lead to higher patient retention rates, positive word-of-mouth referrals and better performance on patient satisfaction metrics, which are increasingly tied to reimbursement rates in many healthcare systems.
As we’ve explored, the benefits of predictive AI extend far beyond improved diagnostics and treatment plans. It’s a catalyst for operational excellence, financial optimization, availability of investments and long-term growth. From resource management to building an authoritative brand, predictive AI touches every aspect of the healthcare business environment.
Chemists find new pharmaceutically active substances from billions of newly combined molecules
Nowadays, there’s lots of buzz about spectacular new medical treatments, such as personalized cancer therapy with modified immune cells or antibodies. Such treatments, however, are very complex and expensive and so find only limited application. Most medical therapies are still based on small chemical compounds that can be produced in large quantities and thus at low cost.
Study predicts a new quantum anomalous crystal in fractionally filled moiré superlattices
Moiré superlattices, structures that arise when two layers of two-dimensional (2D) materials are overlaid with a small twist angle, have been the focus of numerous physics studies. This is because they have recently been found to host novel fascinating unobserved physical phenomena and exotic phases of matter.
A device to sort photon states could be useful for quantum optical computer circuits
To build light-based quantum technologies, scientists and engineers need the ability to generate and manipulate photons as individuals or a few at a time. To build such quantum photonic logic gates that might be used in an optical quantum computer requires a special medium which allows strong and controlled interactions of just a few photons.
Creating an ‘imprint’ on a super photon
Thousands of light particles can merge into a type of “super photon” under certain conditions. Researchers at the University of Bonn have now been able to use “tiny nano molds” to influence the design of this so-called Bose-Einstein condensate. This enables them to shape the speck of light into a simple lattice structure consisting of four points of light arranged in quadratic form.
