AI in Pain Management: Matching Patients with the Best Treatments - Dr. Marcus Komann (Pt3)

📰 AI is reshaping pain management, offering new ways to understand and treat pain through data-driven insights. In this episode, Dr. Marcus Komann discusses the potential of AI to revolutionize pain research, providing a personalized approach that could significantly improve patient outcomes. 🤖🧠 In this insightful third episode, Dr. Olli Tikkanen continues his conversation with Dr. Marcus Komann, this time focusing on the intersection of artificial intelligence and healthcare. Dr. Komann, a expert in AI and data science, explains how AI can help match patients with the most effective treatments by analyzing large datasets—though the challenges of sparse and subjective data make this task far from straightforward. The discussion also touches on the ethical and practical challenges of using AI in medicine, including the importance of data privacy and the potential for AI to uncover surprising connections between seemingly unrelated factors. Dr. Komann shares his excitement about ongoing and future research projects, such as studying the activity levels of new mothers and exploring the effects of certain treatments on palliative care patients.  This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the future of AI in healthcare and how it might revolutionize pain management and patient care. _________________________________________________________________________ This podcast episode is sponsored by Fibion Inc. | Better Sleep, Sedentary Behaviour and Physical Activity Research with Less Hassle --- Collect, store and manage SB and PA data easily and remotely - Discover ground-breaking Fibion SENS --- SB and PA measurements, analysis, and feedback made easy.  Learn more about Fibion Research --- Learn more about Fibion Sleep and Fibion Circadian Rhythm Solutions. --- Fibion Kids - Activity tracking designed for children. --- Collect self-report physical activity data easily and cost-effectively with Mimove. --- Explore our Wearables,  Experience sampling method (ESM), Sleep,  Heart rate variability (HRV), Sedentary Behavior and Physical Activity article collections for insights on related articles. --- Refer to our article "Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior Measurements" for an exploration of active and sedentary lifestyle assessment methods. --- Learn about actigraphy in our guide: Exploring Actigraphy in Scientific Research: A Comprehensive Guide. --- Gain foundational ESM insights with "Introduction to Experience Sampling Method (ESM)" for a comprehensive overview. --- Explore accelerometer use in health research with our article "Measuring Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior with Accelerometers ". --- For an introduction to the fundamental aspects of HRV, consider revisiting our Ultimate Guide to Heart Rate Variability. --- Follow the podcast on Twitter https://twitter.com/PA_Researcher Follow host Dr Olli Tikkanen on Twitter https://twitter.com/ollitikkanen Follow Fibion on Twitter https://twitter.com/fibion https://www.youtube.com/@PA_Researcher
