Overview of GSK Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence activities, by Kim Branson, SVP and Head of AI at GSK Pharma, November 3rd, 2021. AI methods are becoming widely used due to the exponential nature of data generation. AI is used to collect the data, process it, derive causal relations. AI is being used to aid design the next experiment in an efficient manner. (RL, Bandits ..). The exponential nature of data improves AI in a virtuous cycle. Target discovery: integration of Functional Genomic, Genetic and other data and other sources for target discovery.
Companion Software: for each asset we we will generate software for stratification, and individual response prediction
Fundamental AI Research: Fundamental research into causal machine learning, automated machine learning, and multi modal data combination. We are developing a feedback loop for each AI system we build. We have best in industry full automated discovery biology robotics. We ask the model what data it needs. We only know what to do with 15% of the genetic variants we obtain from genetic association studies. How do we unlock all the value of our investments in genetic data? We build AI for Variant to Gene Prediction: It transforms a complex genetic locus, To a ranked list of candidate genes with confidence bounds, That are tested experimentally through Functional Genomics. Variant to Gene AI: A multi AI system for solving the variant to gene problem. Teaching our AI what we know about the world- Internal and external data, GSK AI team developed a custom NLP model for biomedical data, Knowledge Graph of all data. Data becomes a critical factor for AI success. Private Data Sources, Generate data allow us determine the Value of other public / private sources. Models trained on private and public Data are unique. Common Public data sources. Moving Beyond medical records for cohort definition. Image Derived Phenotype (IDP) discovery & generation using AI/ML. Computational companion diagnostics and learning from clinical trials. Focusing on Computational Pathology- Applying the advances in AI for image analysis. Tissues are collected as part of the biopsy for pathology. Digital versions of these H&E slides as a tool for diagnosis/prognosis by human pathologist. What else can we do with this image data? Genetic differences are not human discernible. Currently determined by sequencing the tumor. Should we be constrained by human ability? AI can determine HRD genetic status from image.

Evelyn Pyper, MPH discusses how a patient-centered approach to real-world data collection and evidence generation can transform research in neurodegeneration. Neurodegenerative diseases often affect both motor and cognitive function, produce emotional and social changes, and require significant caregiver support, all while stretching across a fragmented healthcare ecosystem. Participatory research that directly obtains patient consent, empowers patients, and simplifies the task of linking multiple data sources, can lead to a more comprehensive capture of medical histories. This presentation briefly explores ways in which patient-centered research can improve understanding of disease diagnoses, symptomatology, and progression.

Cutting Edge Conversations: Addressing Orphan and Rare DiseasesInsideScientific
There are over 7,000 rare and orphan diseases known to impact approximately 1 in 17 individuals globally, or 50 million in the EU and USA alone. The development of safe, effective, and accessible therapies against these diseases has been challenged by manufacturing, clinical and regulatory hurdles. Despite these obstacles, increased awareness, greater funding, and new research technologies are driving discoveries in this area. Join this webinar to learn how various research groups are working in this space.
Dr. Zabinski discusses how Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Real-World Datasets (RWD) can work in synergy to address many of the challenges facing rare disease researchers, including better describing real-world epidemiology; identifying meaningful patterns in rare disease patient journeys; and assisting in finding patients, plus those not yet diagnosed. This presentation will briefly explore the ways AI and RWD together can enhance visibility into patient trajectories, improve rare disease patient identification for clinical trial recruitment and observational research, and shorten time to diagnosis.
Dr. Kish discusses how precision medicine is redefining how we evaluate and treat rare diseases. No longer is cancer defined by its organ of origin, tissue or cell type but rather its genotype. Over just a few decades lung cancer has been transformed from one disease affecting 100,000+ in the U.S. annually to dozens of cancers that each inflict just a few thousand. But, finding patients and RWD to improve outcomes can be challenging. Learn how Cardinal Health Real-World Evidence and Insights takes a decentralized approach to identify hard to find patients and RWD.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

Also present on the palate, tonsillar pillars, epiglottis, and proximal esophagus
Mechanism of Taste Stimulation:
Interaction of taste substances with receptors on microvilli
Signal transduction pathways for Umami, Sweet, Bitter, Sour, and Salty tastes
Taste Sensitivity and Adaptation:
Decrease in sensitivity with age
Rapid adaptation of taste sensation
Role of Saliva in Taste:
Dissolution of tastants to reach receptors
Washing away the stimulus
Taste Preferences and Aversions:
Mechanisms behind taste preference and aversion
Influence of receptors and neural pathways
Impact of Sensory Nerve Damage:
Degeneration of taste buds if the sensory nerve fiber is cut
Abnormalities of Taste Detection:
Conditions: Ageusia, Hypogeusia, Dysgeusia (parageusia)
Causes: Nerve damage, neurological disorders, infections, poor oral hygiene, adverse drug effects, deficiencies, aging, tobacco use, altered neurotransmitter levels
Neurotransmitters and Taste Threshold:
Effects of serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) on taste sensitivity
Supertasters:
25% of the population with heightened sensitivity to taste, especially bitterness
Increased number of fungiform papillae

5. Clinical trials
Identifying and
understanding
disease, unravelling
the molecular
machinery,
pinpointing targets
Drug development is a long & complex process

Pathophysiology
Developing
molecules that can
be synthesized and
delivered safely to
the target
Drug candidates
Testing via trials,
dissecting failures
and successes,
tracking adverse
events, seeking
regulatory approval
Who gets the drug,
how is it re-
imbursed, tracking
long-term adverse
events
Post-approval

• ~ $2B and 10 years to
develop & launch a drug
• The “valley of death”: most
candidate drugs will fail
• Can be difficult to predict
what will work

hunters who don’t use
AI will be replaced by
those who do.”

10. Why?
– Biology is outrageously complex
– Data is frequently biased, irregular, incomplete,
in different formats
– Biomedicine is a label desert
– As a consequence:
– Advances are throttled by domain knowledge
– How to represent & analyse complex domain
– Suitable data is often scarce

The complexity of biomedicine:
About 50 trillion cells of 200 types
Each cell has 23 pairs of chromosomes
In total 6.4 billion basepairs (positions)
Organised into about 18,000 genes
(Or maybe more like 40,000 genes)
Genetic material elsewhere in the cell
Epigenetic modification
1 million different types of molecules
Lifestyle & history
Exposure & environment
Immune system repertoire & priming
…
Of which we know only a fraction

Radiology & imaging widely used in healthcare
• Capture important & difficult to
abstract data
– E.g. presence, size, shape of
tumor
• Radiologists
– Never enough of them
– Rushed
– Frequently wrong
• But AI is good at interpreting
images …

Not just X-rays & MRI but microscopes
• Cancers are associated with
certain proteins
• Traditionally have to be stained
& examined visually
• Deep learning can automatically
do this for us
• Faster, more consistent

Precision medicine: subtypes of diseases & patients
• Because many conditions have
similar clinical presentations
but vastly different underlying
molecular machinery
• Precision medicine
• The right drug for the right patient at
the right time
• Clustering
• But as simple as seems
• E.g. asthma
Kermani et al. 2018

• A lot of biomedical
knowledge is associative
or relational & multimodal
• Knowledge graphs /
GCNs help us to capture
and analysis
• Have been used to
propose new drugs and
patient subtypes
19. 19
We need more data
• Many possible types of
useful data
• For many purposes
• From where?
• How to manage &
interoperate?
• Issues of representation &
diversity
20. Interpretability (etc.) is vital
– May feedback to inspire mechanistic research, but …
– But what actually is interpretability?
– Essential for:
– a smoke test, validation
– check for bias
– communication
– Likewise calibration
– Important to understand how (un)sure we are

Editor's Notes
COPD:
Distill events from patients history contained in RWD into a graph demonstrating commonalities and diverging pathways.
In the resulting patient-patient network, patients (nodes) are connected to one another by edges if they exhibit clinical similarity across many clinical dimensions (for example, laboratory tests). Patients who exhibited very high degrees of similarity were grouped into single nodes\
The filtering step resulted in 73 clinical features that were used for topological inference of the patient-patient similarity network (table S1). From the resulting patient-patient network, we identified three completely segregated clusters with 762 (subtype 1), 617 (subtype 2), and 1096 (subtype 3) patients
Subtype 1 was characterized by T2D complications diabetic nephropathy and diabetic retinopathy; subtype 2 was enriched for cancer malignancy and cardiovascular diseases; and subtype 3 was associated most strongly with cardiovascular diseases, neurological diseases, allergies, and HIV infections
