How should you think about writing an email to a busy person? One rule is that you should spend at least ten times the time writing it as the other person will have to spend reading it. And there are other rules, too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=te2O...

What is the feeling of discovery like, as a scientist? How is it unlike any other feeling a person can have? How uncommon is it? www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdHP...

In 2026, I am launching a vlog, For the Love of Science, about working aspects of being a scientist - the joys and challenges, the practical aspects and mental and emotional qualities it involves. It's on YouTube (at @NAChristakis) and Instagram (at @OnTheLoveofScience) www.youtube.com/@NAChristakis

I've been thinking about the "virtual cell" concept and wanted to write up a few thoughts. Specifically on how I think the prior experience in GWAS informs the most likely way these models will be useful. andrewcarroll.github.io/2025/12/23/t...

Definitely true in medicine: When the costs of failure are high, the demo to product interval is long (e.g., Waymo).--Andrej Karpathy on the @dwarkesh.skystack.xyz podcast.

🚨 Agentic Systems in Radiology Everyone’s talking about agents🕵️‍♀️🕵️‍♂️ — but what happens when you bring them into real clinical workflows? Our new preprint explores the design, applications, challenges, and evaluation of LLM-based agents and agentic workflows in radiology 👇 arxiv.org/abs/2510.09404

Yes! A model trained with high quality healthcare data is usually better at a specific healthcare task than a general language model adapted to that task. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/16/o...

We're taking a big step towards medical superintelligence. AI models have aced multiple choice medical exams – but real patients don’t come with ABC answer options. Now MAI-DxO can solve some of the world’s toughest open-ended cases with higher accuracy and lower costs.

This research is just the first step on a long, exciting journey. We’re excited to keep testing and learning with our healthcare partners in pursuit of better, more accessible care for people everywhere. More on the blog today: microsoft.ai/new/the-path...

I left last year November leaving behind a huge following I have much less here but I’m ok with that and in a much better place

Pivots also can indicate that the primary business isn’t particularly healthy, which wouldn’t be surprising given the suite of medical imaging AI products currently on the market.

The papers all follow a similar template and make misleading claims https://go.nature.com/4kucwEH
