Y'all ready for this... Thanks to @damian_cullen + @eocaollai at @irishtimes for giving me the opportunity to share my story. You can read my piece in the Irish Times online #theirishtimes #heartfailure #cancer #staystrong https://t.co/gnqbmGCsNk

In my latest article I make an argument that an AI-driven health risk calculator app could empower patients, especially those with comorbidities, by providing personalized risk assessments as they wait for appointments.

My 10 year old is obsessed with the mental meanderings of a 34-year-old woman she's never met who says things like – “It’s me. Hi. I’m the problem, it’s me.” What are the health benefits (and detriments) to being a fan of the phenomenon #TaylorSwift

Activists are often quick to point out the health drawbacks to policies, but should we be examining public and private plans to see if they could have an unexpected health benefit?

What is the medical intended purpose of psychedelics?

I have written about the digital transformation of #healthcare. But I never took a moment to acknowledge the people who make the tech happen - the human intelligence 🙌 I was able to address this in a recent video I made with @eHealthIreland @HSELive

Some very exciting plans are in store for Ireland in the digital healthcare space.

I attended a patient workshop on Artificial Intelligence in Heart Failure #AI4HF It felt progressive, not only in terms of technology but in patient terms. Patients need to be part of the process of change from the start. https://t.co/PuAq5V3mTS

Just because an algorithm works that doesn't mean it's doing the right thing. Should STEM education become STEAM innovation?

Step away from the stress of the daily grind and go to a place where people still say 'hello' for the sheer hell of it! South Bend Indiana.

Ever get that sinking feeling? You probably need to sort out your gut microbes! I predict the next health wave will be eating to avoid disease (as opposed to avoiding the mirror)

Will the 'New Ireland' go the way of Germany and attempt to legalize cannabis. As a patient, I feel we need to revise the restricted list of illnesses allowed access to cannabis products. I assure you it will not lead to a breakdown in society...(probably)
