Digitization and AI are transforming pathology by accelerating research and modernizing the clinical workflow. Proscia co-founder and CEO David West's entrepreneurial journey --and experience with digitization and handling personal information-- began with a business converting VHS tapes to disc.
We explore David's multidisciplinary approach, combining software, biology, and physics, which led to the creation of Proscia and its flagship platform, Concentriq. This conversation traces his path from academic research at Johns Hopkins University to becoming a key figure in medical technology innovation, highlighting the transition of pathology from traditional methods to digital solutions.
The discussion includes an examination of digital pathology's impact on the medical field, emphasizing how Proscia's cloud-based system enhances data management and algorithm development capabilities for pathologists. We also address the broader implications of integrating AI into pathology, including challenges related to healthcare reimbursement and the potential for AI to revolutionize laboratory economics and patient care.
Lastly, David provides insights into the future of AI in life sciences and healthcare, predicting its role in biomarker discovery and therapy recommendations.
He concludes by recommending the book, The Fish That Ate the Whale --about the Banana King, Samuel Zemurray.
Host David E. Williams is president of healthcare strategy consulting firm Health Business Group. Produced by Dafna Williams.
