Social Vulnerability and Frailty in Hospitalized Older Adults. https://t.co/5DUhyUH7F3 Being socially vulnerable was associated with increased length of stay, having excess hospital days, and being discharged to long term care from hospital. Nice paper, led by @cm_jasmine

Panel discussion at #aisummit in London, UK on the challenges around ethical and inclusive use of AI in multiple industries.

Key point: demographics data required but often difficult to obtain.

[Jack Quach @JackQuach]

Spending the summer in London working with @TheISEH @UCL as part of my @CIHR_IRSC CGS-MSFSS! Excited to connect with UK researchers about frailty, ageing, and ML/AI while here. Would be happy to chat or receive recommendations about anything!

Check out our article recently accepted in EJPC on the role of frailty in cardiac rehab. There is increasing evidence that we should address frailty in people living with cardiovascular disease! https://t.co/vcUaoyLWxZ @olga_theou @KehlerScott @Krockdoc @McArthurCaitlin
