Sometimes you get fortunate to work with amazing people on an amazing journey who battle every single day with grit and passion!! Priya Abani and AliveCor team!
AliveCor introduces the world's first AI that can detect heart attack on a reduced leadset in monumental dual clearance by the FDA. Today, AliveCor launched the all-new, AI-powered Kardia 12L ECG System, which is FDA-cleared to detect 35 cardiac conditions including serious conditions like acute myocardial infarction (MI) and the most common types of cardiac ischemia. The 12-lead ECG has been the standard of cardiac care since 1954, but its availability has been limited. Until now. Small enough to fit in a pocket, Kardia 12L boasts advanced AI algorithms that are substantially equivalent to the current state-of-the-art ECG analysis solutions. Learn how Kardia 12L can assist physicians in rapid disease detection, enhance patient experience, and expand access to accurate heart data faster and more conveniently than ever before. https://lnkd.in/gRjde-pR

Building a new energy source like nuclear fusion is about making the unknowns known. That's why we need transparency around the milestones for progress and to demand industry-wide accountability. Bob Mumgaard of Commonwealth Fusion Systems outlines exactly that in his open letter on building trust in fusion. Grateful and proud to be on this journey with him to make for a sustainable future. #bold #early #impactful
Fusion energy is key to solving our current climate crisis. So it’s critical that the fusion industry works together to build public trust. To do that, we must standardize how we evaluate progress. Every fusion concept naturally passes milestones that show it has a viable source of fusion energy and it can commercialize that fusion energy. To help motivate our industry to work together toward this common good, I’ve detailed the standardized approach we use internally to track the ecosystem. Hopefully this is helpful to investors, press, regulators, and the public to use to evaluate real progress. Further, CFS commits to focusing on company milestone announcements that are: ✔ Easy to measure and interpret ✔ Peer reviewed, as the norm ✔ Shared and celebrated publicly ✔ Easy to understand The path to fusion is paved with extraordinary potential for climate and energy, and while we race against time to make fusion a reality we must also get it right. I urge my colleagues and peers to hold ourselves accountable to science, engineering, and commercial progress. A rising tide lifts all boats. Read my full open letter below and let me know what you think. https://lnkd.in/ejiwP3fz
