The evolving landscape of cosmetic science is increasingly defined by its convergence with clinical research, challenging long-standing distinctions between aesthetic enhancement and therapeutic intervention. Historically, cosmetics have been confined to products...
South Korea and the United States are both wealthy, technologically sophisticated countries with excellent physicians and world-class hospitals. Yet they placed opposite structural bets on what a health system is for. America bet on treating disease as well as it can...
Clinical decision support is not new, and it does not have to be complex to work. If anything, the simpler it is, the more likely clinicians are to use it. The best-known earlier example is the WHO surgical safety checklist, developed by a team led by Atul Gawande,...
Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming healthcare, moving beyond research laboratories into hospitals, clinics, and public health systems worldwide. Today, AI supports clinicians in areas such as medical imaging, clinical documentation, decision support,...
The life sciences sector is in the midst of a digital transformation that most security teams were not built to handle. AI-driven drug discovery platforms, cloud-connected lab equipment, genomic databases, and real-time patient data pipelines are creating attack...
For several years, AI has been viewed as one of the biggest opportunities for the medtech sector. With an industry survey finding that 91% of leaders were enthusiastic about its potential, early conversations centred on how it could transform healthcare delivery and...

It’s impossible to escape the topic of AI right now. AI hype in life sciences now dominates every boardroom, industry conference, pitch deck and earnings call. But we’ve seen this movie before. A decade ago, the topic was the cloud, and it, too, was everywhere -...
Two years into the biopharma industry's most sustained experiment with artificial intelligence, the honest answer to "what has changed" is not the one most conference keynotes suggest. It is not that biopharma AI now runs the laboratory. It is that AI has become very...
Cardiovascular disease in Australia claims one life every 12 minutes. The irreversible damage to the heart is known as heart failure, a condition that progressively prevents the heart from providing the proper amount of blood to our body. This means that patients will...

A family looking for home care may describe its situation in a few sentences. “My mother has dementia. She lives alone and needs someone there at night. She can still dress herself but sometimes forgets to eat. We need help soon.” A caregiver may describe her...
Across healthcare, financial pressure is forcing difficult decisions. Pharmacy teams are being asked to do more with less. Service expansion, dealing with NHS patients, workforce shortages remain acute, and every investment is being scrutinised. In this environment,...
As healthcare and life sciences organizations confront workforce shortages, regulatory pressures, rapid technological change, and increasing operational complexity, building a pipeline of extraordinary leaders has never been more important. Many of these organizations...
Healthcare has undergone a remarkable digital transformation over the past two decades. Electronic health records, electronic prescribing, patient portals, telemedicine, artificial intelligence, and remote monitoring have fundamentally changed how healthcare is...
Healthcare has a second epidemic running alongside every clinical one, and it doesn't show up on a chart. It shows up in a fax queue. A claim gets denied, and somewhere in a hospital's business office, a trained professional begins a process that looks less like...
Preventive medicine is entering a new era. Advances in genomics, biomarker testing, continuous monitoring technologies, imaging, and data analytics are enabling clinicians to identify disease risk with a level of precision that would have been unimaginable just a...
