Star Trek, the Qualcomm Tricorder XPRIZE, and the Future of Medicine (part 1 of 2)

Artificial intelligence is already impacting healthcare is numerous ways. Are we far from the future portrayed in Star Trek: Voyager, of an AI holographic doctor with encyclopedic medical knowledge? What are the pathways that will yield the most profound results for AI in medicine? And what are the ethical and regulatory issues we need to consider as we develop these technologies?

Hosted by Erik Viirre, Director of the Arthur C. Clarke Center for Human Imagination and Medical Director of the Qualcomm Tricorder XPRIZE, The Future of Medicine is an exploration of these questions and more, as they impact the UC San Diego innovation ecosystem and beyond. Our master of ceremonies is Robert Picardo, actor and star of Star Trek: Voyager, where he left a cultural impact as the face of AI medicine as the Emergency Medical Hologram, known as “The Doctor.” Basil Harris, founder of Basil Leaf Technologies and winner of the Qualcomm Tricorder XPRIZE to develop a real-world Tricorder-like medical device, shares his experience developing DextER, an autonomous medical diagnostic device, and the future of this pathway for innovation. And leaders from UC San Diego, including Dr. Rusty Kallenberg (Chairman of Family Medicine and Director of the UCSD XPRIZE Test Program), Ramesh Rao (Director, Qualcomm Institute), Henrik Christensen (Director, Contextual Robotics Institute), and Laurel Riek (Director, Healthcare Robotics Lab), join a panel on artificial agents in medical technology development.

The Qualcomm Tricorder XPRIZE Test Program was hosted at the USCD Altman Clinical and Translational Research Institute (ACTRI), now the world leading center for evaluation of Mobile Health systems.
