At She's Thinking Podcast, we investigate how scientists, policy-makers, and society members come together to find solutions for local and global challenges. From the COVID-19 pandemic to the rise of artificial intelligence, our podcast covers a wide repertoire of topics through the lens of several subject matter experts. We also highlight the the grassroots efforts of local community leade ...

The advent of A.I. has undoubtedly benefited society in many ways; however, one key caveat of the technology is how A.I. can create misinformation. Specifically, we are joined by Dr. Matt Groh from Northwestern University, who specializes in A.I. Deepfakes and Deepfake detection technologies. We discuss what a Deepfake is and how we can combat their negative effects in society.
An important aspect of A.I. is text-to-image generation, where you can prompt an A.I. platform to generate an image using written instructions. With the advent of this useful technology, researchers have discovered that this capability seems racially biased and may even perpetuate harmful stereotypes. We are joined by Dr. Katie Fraser, who specializes in A.I. and studies its bias.
In our second episode of our MetaMinds series, we continue our chat with Dr. Shinjini Kundu, MD,PhD, who works at the intersection of diagnostic medicine and AI. Dr. Kundu discusses her innovative research using 3D Transport Based Morphometry (TBM), a groundbreaking technique that leverages AI to detect diseases like osteoarthritis before they become irreversible. The episode discusses how this technology can be used to prevent diseases before they arise, and more excitingly, how A.I. can be leveraged in personalized medicine.
In the latest episode of "She’s Thinking," formerly known as "Politics Under the Microscope," the podcast debuts its new series, MetaMinds, which explores the profound impact of artificial intelligence across various domains. This episode delves into the potential of AI in early disease detection, featuring an in-depth conversation with Dr. Shinjini Kundu, MD,PhD, who works at the intersection of diagnostic medicine and AI. Dr. Kundu discusses her innovative research using 3D Transport Based Morphometry (TBM), a groundbreaking technique that leverages AI to detect diseases like osteoarthritis before they become irreversible. The episode covers the challenges of integrating AI in clinical settings, including the need for high-quality data, explainability of AI decisions, and the practical concerns of insurance and patient autonomy. The conversation underscores TBM's promise to revolutionize diagnostic medicine, paving the way for advancements in preventive and personalized healthcare.
