What If the Next Computer Ran on Human Brain Cells?

Get advisory insights about Healthcare AI — at zero cost: https://junaidkaliamd.substack.com/ The foundation of tomorrow's diagnostics is being rebuilt — and it starts in biology, not silicon. In this episode, Edmund White, biomedical innovator and bestselling author, joins the conversation to challenge an assumption quietly embedded in every AI tool entering healthcare: that silicon is the only material worth building on. Drawing from three decades at the intersection of cardiac care and medical innovation, Edmund traces a through-line from digital twins of children's hearts to brain organoids — arguing that biology's energy efficiency and adaptability aren't limitations to engineer around, they're the very properties that could unlock earlier intervention and more precise patient outcomes. The conversation widens from there into the economics of AI adoption, the coming bubble, and what it will take for healthcare systems and policymakers to get ahead of a shift that's already in motion.
