Healthcare is at a critical crossroads where clinicians are increasingly sidelined by administrative weight and third-party interests. The path forward isn't just surviving a broken system—it’s reclaiming our roles as primary stakeholders and system architects through a unified, "Doctor-to-Doctor" movement.

Joining us to lead this conversation is Dr. Kianor Shah, a Southern California-based oral surgeon with 20 years of clinical experience and founder of the Global Summit Institute. Dr. Shah argues that the integration of medicine and dentistry is the next frontier of patient care, with AI serving as the "divine tool" to bridge these historical silos. By leveraging predictive analysis and peer-to-peer collaboration, we can move beyond the administrative burdens that cause burnout and return our focus to clinical excellence. This mission culminates in the 2026 Global Medical Dental AI Summit in London, a landmark effort to set rigorous, doctor-led standards for AI implementation.

Together, we explore how transitioning from a service-provider mindset to a stakeholder mindset allows us to get around industry challenges and restore the oral-systemic health connection.

The FDA stepped back. Now, organizational governance is the only thing standing between innovation and liability.

At CES 2026, the FDA officially announced it won't regulate wellness devices or Clinical Decision Support tools—removing approval bottlenecks and accelerating innovation. But this regulatory shift transfers responsibility to healthcare organizations themselves. Who builds the frameworks for data management when there's no FDA requirement? How do health systems justify physician time reviewing continuous patient streams without reimbursement pathways? And where does liability fall in this new landscape?

In this episode, Dr. Junaid and Ed tackle the AI governance vacuum, exploring how healthcare AI agents can scale care, from filtering patient data to managing population health. They share J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference updates on why organizational trust, rather than just regulatory stamps, is the key to successful AI in healthcare.

What You Will Discover:

- What changed in the regulatory landscape?

- How the shift affects clinician workflows

- Who should pay for clinical data platforms?

- JPM Conference Insights

- The importance of governance and trust

- Biologics, biosimilars, and China competition

- Practical strategies for continuous learning

Drug development today forces patients to fit standard medications—but what if we could reverse that paradigm and design treatments tailored to each patient's unique biology?

This episode explores how specialized AI cloud infrastructure is transforming drug discovery and healthcare research–not as a distant future possibility, but as tools available to researchers today. Joining the conversation is Dr. Ilya Burkov, who shares how the right computational foundation and HPC tools accelerate scientific breakthroughs at AI speed.

The conversation reveals a significant shift in accessibility: junior researchers without specialized training now achieve 80-90% success rates in complex CRISPR experiments using agentic AI systems. These results once required years of expertise. Small research teams and startups can now access the same cutting-edge infrastructure as major pharmaceutical companies. This democratization directly impacts clinical practice: drug development timelines are compressing from decades to months, which means personalized treatments tailored to individual biology could become available within your career timeline.

It's not just about raw infrastructure efficiency. It's about the combination of technology, accessibility, domain expertise, and white-glove support that together transform what's possible in healthcare innovation.

The most dangerous assumption in healthcare AI today is that we have time to "wait and see" how tools develop. With the state-of-the-art for AI models now shifting every 7 days, the traditional 3-year implementation cycle isn't just slow—it’s stagnating clinical transformation.

In this episode, Dr. Khan Siddiqui (Radiologist and Founder of Hoppr AI) joins the panel to reveal why the future of medicine isn’t about choosing the "perfect" tool. Instead, it’s about building a sustainable system that can keep pace with technology improving at 1,600 times the speed of human practice.

This conversation moves beyond theory to address a raw, systemic crisis facing modern medicine: where radiologists must read 145 cardiac CT scans in a single shift—roughly 5.5 images per second. This unsustainable pace leaves physicians exhausted and their families suffering the collateral damage of clinical burnout.

Dr. Siddiqui breaks down how the collision of massive workforce shortages and declining reimbursements has moved AI from a "luxury" to a baseline requirement for survival. To meet this challenge, the episode explores the critical shift in a clinician-led innovation, frictionless workflow, and dynamic regulation.

The future of AI-enabled care is massive and available, but the question remains: will we be the ones leading it?

In this episode, Dr. Robert Pearl – Former CEO of Permanente Medical Group (Kaiser Permanente), Author of "ChatGPT, MD", Forbes Contributor – joins the panel to challenge the core of how we practice medicine today. Medical students are entering training with AI capabilities that their professors don't possess. But beneath this technological evolution lies a clinical crisis: 400,000 deaths annually from misdiagnosis, intermittent care for chronic diseases, and a system that could eliminate up to $2 trillion in wasteful spending.

The conversation addresses why AI integration advances rapidly in other countries, yet the US lags, not from lack of technology, but from cultural resistance and misaligned financial incentives. Dr. Pearl reveals the solution he's witnessed work at scale that allows a delivery system to have smarter chronic disease management and better doctor-patient interaction.

This discussion connects directly to what matters most in clinical practice: better diagnostic accuracy, continuous disease monitoring that actually works, and care delivery that doesn't burn out physicians while delivering superior results. The paradigm can shift from the traditional trade-off between quality, access, and cost to a model where increasing quality and access genuinely lowers cost.
