The health care technology sector has given rise to some of the most innovative startups in the world, which are poised to help people live longer, better lives. The innovations have primarily been driven by the advent of software and mobility, allowing the health sector to digitize many of the pen and paper-based operations and processes that currently slow down service delivery.
More recently, we’re seeing software become far more intelligent and independent. These new capabilities — studied under the banner of artificial intelligence and machine learning — are accelerating the pace of innovation in health care. Thus far, the applications of AI and ML in health care have enabled the industry to take on some of its biggest challenges in these areas:
- Personal genetics
- Drug discovery
- Disease identification and management
