A unique collaboration between U of T Engineering researchers and hospital physicians is pioneering the use of artificial intelligence similar to an AI that helps detect earthquakes to diagnose heart rhythm abnormalities at Torontos Hospital for Sick Children. The innovative approach, which combines specially trained AI with the expertise of SickKids clinicians, could lead to significantly better health outcomes for critically ill children by providing faster and more accurate diagnosis of heart problems, the researchers say, as well as easing demands on clinicians time. This could help some of our most vulnerable patients, while also reducing stress on the health-care system, says Mjaye Mazwi, a staff physician at SickKids, associate professor in the department of paediatrics at U of Ts Temerty Faculty of Medicine and research co-lead at the Temerty Centre for Artificial Intelligence Research and Education in Medicine Continue reading →

Cross-talk between brain cells and peripheral immune cells can modulate the progression of multiple sclerosis (MS), Mount Sinai researchers have discovered. Their findings reveal a previously unknown way in which the brain and immune system talk to each other and may identify a new therapeutic target for MS and other brain disorders. In a study published May 8 in the journal Immunity, the team described how the inflammatory protein interleukin-3 (IL-3) coordinates that cellular communication and incites the recruitment of immune cells from the blood to the brain, exacerbating brain inflammation and worsening MS pathology.
