AI and Functional Precision Medicine: A Defining Moment for Pediatric Cancer Care

President Trump’s 2025 executive order establishing artificial intelligence (AI) in pediatric cancer as a national priority marks a turning point in medicine. For decades, childhood cancer treatments have advanced slowly, constrained by limited data, small clinical trials, and therapies designed for adults. The convergence of AI and Functional Precision Medicine (FPM) now offers a path to faster, more accurate, and more personalized treatments for children, one that replaces population-based best guesses with evidence-driven precision care.

Preserving Native Kidney Function: The Ultimate Goal in Kidney Care

By John Erbey

The human kidney is a masterclass in biological engineering. Responsible for filtering approximately 50 gallons of blood daily, this vital organ performs more than waste removal. Through processes like selective reabsorption, it carefully maintains balance in the body, regulating essential nutrients, water, and electrolytes. This unparalleled functionality cannot be replicated by available technology.

Fork in the road: Conavi Medical’s route less traveled hopes to create a new standard in the fast-moving imaging market:

Angioplasty and stenting procedures (or percutaneous coronary interventions/PCIs) are performed more than four million times around the world every year to open up blockages in coronary arteries to allow the heart to receive proper blood flow. Most of these procedures — 80-85 percent — are only guided by traditional angiography, an x-ray of the blood vessels that requires a contrast agent to be flushed into the heart to identify where the blockages are.
