AIME (Artificial Intelligence in Medical Epidemiology) is a disease prediction platform utilizing machine learning to predict deadly disease outbreaks up to 1 month in advance and geolocating them up to 400 meter radius with an accuracy of 88.7%. Currently, governments are expending enormous resources and funding to tackle deadly infectious disease. Armed with this information, government will be able to manage targeted deadly outbreaks more strategically. This unique presentation will also focus on breakthrough developments ranging from 3D printing to personalized stem cell lines, artificial intelligence, point-of-care labon-a-chip diagnostics to large-scale bioinformatics and synthetic biology and the implications of low cost genomics. All of these rapidly developing technologies and more are discussed in the context of the current explosions of digital information, big data, data science, and connected and distributed healthcare.

Palestrante

Dr Dhesi Baha Raja is attached with Ministry of Health, Malaysia. He completed his Master in Public Health and is currently pursuing DrPH (Doctor of Public Health) in University Malaysia Sarawak. He has invented mutiple Artificial intelligence Health Programs in Malaysia. I-DAFTAR is an autonomous online intelligent system that schedules patients appointment in order to reduce congestion and workload in health clinics. He then developed a second system called I-KELAHIRAN, an AI birth system that organizes birth data & tracks high risks pregnancies have been implemented in 43 hospitals and more than 592 health clinics Nationwide. Dr Dhesi is also the founder of the leading online health portal; Malaysian Medical Gazette, written by qualified health professionals for the community & has more than 10,000 daily readers.

Dr Dhesi also won first prize in two separate competitions; Big Data Analytics by MDEC, IBM & Microsoft as well as another competition by Genovasi called Global Impact Competition and was sponsored by Google & ECM Libra Foundation to Singularity University in the National Aeronautic & Space Administration (NASA) in Silicon Valley, Califronia. During his graduate studies there, he co-founded a corporate company AIME (Artificial Intelligence in Medical Epidmiology) that has the capability to identify deadly outbreaks 1 month in advance & geolocating them up to 400 meter radius. This invention won a place as the top 5 startups in Silicon Valley & was the only startup to receive a full grant for the (FIX) Field Innovation Exchange Program to tackle dengue in Brazil. AIME is now looking into FLU, HIV/AIDS EBOLA & other infectious diseases. Dr Dhesi has also been chosen by Forbes International as the top 40 finalist for ‘World Changers’ with a prize worth 1 Million USD.

In view of his capabilities in artificial intelligence, medicine & big data analytics, Dr Dhesi has been selected as an analogue astronaut as part of the medical team with Crew 158 under the organization Mars Without Border, MWOB. The mission is scheduled for latter this year at Mars Desert Research Station, MDRS, in Utah. Multidisciplinary research studies will be conducted to include innovative technologies and medical protocols including a yearlong telesurgery-teleanesthesia training study and testing of an integrated portable solar powered 3D printer to 3D print surgical tools, a study in collaboration with the NASA HISEAS Mission IV expedition in Hawaii.
