  • Tell Me Why AI-driven health interventions are a game changer

    In the latest episode of Tell Me Why, deep-tech entrepreneur and founder of B’spoke Therapeutics and egenome.ai, Sid Das argues that medicine, as it exists now, is largely trial and error, more practice than science. AI, he says, is changing that. By analysing vast datasets of blood biomarkers and biological signals, healthcare can move towards a deterministic model, one that predicts disease risk with clarity and designs interventions with intent.


    Das explains how his AI engines are trained on hundreds of thousands of individuals and thousands of parameters per person. This shift has major implications for prevention. Instead of relying on family history or generic risk factors, AI-driven analysis can identify vulnerabilities — from cardiovascular disease to metabolic disorders — years in advance, and prescribe personalised diet, supplement and lifestyle protocols to reverse them.
