The Big Unlock · Omkar Kulkarni, VP, Chief Transformation & Innovation Officer, Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA) In this episode, Omkar Kulkarni, VP, Chief Transformation & Innovation Officer at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA), outlines the stark funding gap in pediatric innovation, which receives less than 1% of digital health investments despite children making up 20% of the population. To combat this, the CHLA-led KidsX consortium unites children’s hospitals nationwide to scale early-stage digital solutions through collaboration over competition. Omkar suggests that pediatrics requires entirely separate technological blueprints, hence digital tools must be designed for adult caregivers, accommodate strict adolescent privacy laws at age 12, and scale across diverse physiological sizes. He highlights vital innovation pipelines, including AI tools targeting the youth mental health crisis, longitudinal chronic care management, and 24/7 validated conversational interfaces for parents. For healthcare startups entering this space, Omkar emphasizes that the key to building institutional trust relies on presenting deep, heterogeneous clinical evidence, establishing commercially viable billing frameworks, and practicing deep humility when approaching complex clinical partnerships. He believes that generative AI will not replace clinicians but will instead automate administrative tasks, empowering them to focus on top-of-license, human-to-human care. Take a listen.

In this episode, Ryan Cameron, Executive Vice President, Chief Information & Innovation Officer, Children's Nebraska, shares how his team is leveraging AI, real-time data, and human-centered design to improve care delivery across pediatric settings. He discusses innovative initiatives ranging from school-based telehealth and Medicaid automation to command center technology and empowering clinicians to build their own digital solutions.

In this episode of Tech It to the Limit, pediatric ER physician and digital health veteran Dr. Adam Glasofer returns to the pod with a characteristically unfiltered take on the oversaturation of AI in healthcare. He argues that while AI tools are genuinely game changing for clinical workflows and point of care decision support, the current investment climate has created a dangerous incentive structure. Then, recorded live at VIVE in Los Angeles, Elliott sits down with Scott Arnold, EVP and Chief Digital and Innovation Officer, and Rachel Feinman, SVP of Innovation Ventures and Digital Solutions, from Tampa General Hospital for a candid conversation on operationalizing innovation. They reveal why most health systems say they want innovation but build only black holes for ideas, how TGH built actual on ramps from Idea HQ and innovation challenges to a Shark Tank event where frontline nurses pitch board members, and why "proceed until apprehended" has become their operating mantra. Tune in to hear why the future of healthcare may depend less on replacing humans and more on designing technology that helps humans think, decide, and care better.In this episode: [01:14] Welcoming Dr. Adam Glasofer[02:53] The oversaturation of AI in healthcare[05:17] Where AI actually belongs in clinical care[07:23] Lessons from CPOE and order set design[10:54] Will we ever license AI to practice medicine?[11:34] The irreplaceable human elements of clinical care[14:14] Ambient AI and the accountability paradox[15:45] The biggest fear in AI oversaturation[24:47] Sponsored skit: Kwor'm.ai[27:14] Introducing Scott Arnold and Rachel Feinman[30:04] Tampa General's innovation vision and culture[32:34] How frontline ideas reach the innovation portfolio[34:35] On-ramps for innovation: Idea HQ and Shark Tank events[36:46] From idea to scale: cycle times and the "advanced work" phase[40:06] Change management and winning hearts on the frontline[43:03] Inside the Palantir partnership[45:03] Real wins: sepsis detection, care traffic control, and the blood supply crisis[49:54] Advice for startups pitching health systems[56:30] Most overused word at VIVE 2025[58:13] Elliott's nuggets of wisdom[01:05:03] Episode wrap-upResources:Tech It To The Limit PodcastWebsite Apple PodcastDr. Adam Glasofer LinkedInScott Arnold LinkedIn Rachel Feinman LinkedIn Elliott WilsonLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthewelliottwilson

Text us your thoughts on the episode or the show!Today, most teams aren't just struggling to build their AI strategies. The real struggle begins when they try to execute their strategies. In this episode of Ops Cast, host Michael Hartmann sits down with David York, Chief AI and Innovation Officer at Helix CXM, to get practical answers about what it really takes for GTM organizations to move from talking about AI to operationalizing it.David has spent years working at the intersection of marketing operations, RevOps, automation, and AI transformation. Together, he and Michael discovered an uncomfortable truth about how most teams are already overwhelmed by manual work, fragmented processes, shadow systems, and operational debt. Piling "figure out AI" on top of all that creates more chaos. In this conversation, you'll hear:Why the gap between AI strategy and implementation is so hard to closeWhat operational excellence actually looks like in practice, and why it has to come firstWhy mapping how work gets done today is the critical first step before introducing AIThe real difference between automation and "automation plus intelligence"How to identify low-risk, high-value AI use cases (like partially manual lead routing) versus harder onesThe hidden costs teams underestimate: tooling, LLM costs, maintenance, and human monitoringWhere human judgment is still absolutely requiredPractical advice on where to start if you're feeling overwhelmed by AI pressure right nowWhether you lead a scrappy SMB or a specialized team inside a large enterprise, this is a grounded discussion about the reality of AI in modern GTM, beyond the hype and the LinkedIn hot takes.David also published a new book this week, AI-Powered Growth: A 7-Step Adoption and Transformation Framework, which goes deeper into how Marketing Ops leaders can systematically prioritize and operationalize AI initiatives.

Jim talks with Peter Wang—chief AI officer, cofounder and CEO of Anaconda, board member of the Center for Humane Technology, and founder of the Austin STEM Center—about Robert Pirsig's metaphysics of quality, how modernity encourages defection, and a secular conception of the sacred. They discuss: Peter's self-description as "the music in a violin that can kind of hear itself" The "Peter Wang-shaped hole in the universe" thought experiment Subject-object Cartesian dualism as a false alienation Minimum viable metaphysics & atheistic agnosticism Religion as an evolutionary emergent coherence mechanism for human collectives Figure and ground as a metaphysical lens—the anonymous soil that allows religion to sprout The Unix fortune "Man was invented by water to carry itself uphill" & Peter's teleology origin story Process metaphysics & presentism—"we're not going anywhere, we're becoming someone" Pirsig's metaphysics of quality & the four strata of static patterns of value The intellectual plane vs. the social plane & Ken Wilber's pre-trans fallacy Defection within collaborative groups as the dynamic all human social systems try to constrain "Death from a Distance"—throwing, beta coalitions & the emergence of a middle class of power Modernity's shrinking locus of care & the collapse of embedded social context The agglomeration of defectors & how fluid capital enables sociopathic hoarding Money-on-money return as today's dominant pruning rule Joint attention as a scarce collective resource & social media's perforation of shared intersubjective infrastructure Human agency & "micro-abdications" as the aggregate source of Moloch / Game A The augmented currency thought experiment—metering human thriving alongside financial returns Broken collective sense-making & the search for dynamic, adaptable values Peter's secular conception of the sacred—the "eternal golden braid of humanity" "Ofness"—holding both distinctness and belonging to the world ... and much more.

Chris Holman welcomes back Glenn Stevens, Jr., Executive Director of MichAuto and the Chief Automotive and Innovation Officer at the Detroit Regional Chamber, Detroit, MI. Welcome back, Glenn. A popular day in your annual cycle was earlier this week, recap how Automobility Day at the Capitol went? What are the top priorities emerging from the Automobility Policy Roadmap that business leaders should be preparing for now? How can Michigan's automotive companies better align with state policymakers to stay competitive during this election cycle? What specific policy changes would have the greatest immediate impact on growth and investment in Michigan's mobility sector? How are industry leaders balancing innovation—like EVs and mobility tech—with current economic and regulatory pressures? What does being named Legislator of the Year signal to businesses about the state's future direction on automotive policy? (and who got that honor this year)? » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Watch MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/ On April 21, MichAuto hosted its annual Automobility Day at the Capitol, gathering over twenty MichAuto investor companies in Lansing to meet with legislators and connect Michigan's signature industry with policymakers. Throughout the day, conversations centered on the rapid technological change in the industry, fluctuating trade policies, uncertainty around EV adoption and infrastructure, the debate over data center proliferation in the state, and a growing skills gap in the workforce. Against this backdrop, discussions highlighted the urgency of MichAuto's Automobility Policy Roadmap to keep Michigan at the forefront of automotive and mobility innovation. The conversations reinforced a shared responsibility among MichAuto, its investors, and policymakers to collaborate on policy solutions and guide the roadmap's execution over the next decade. Share your input to inform the Policy Roadmap. 2026 Automobility Day at the Capitol 2026 Legislator of the Year MichAuto also honored Sen. John Damoose (R-Harbor Springs) as its 2026 Legislator of the Year, which recognizes a state representative or senator who has made significant contributions to policy that has benefited Michigan's signature industry, while seeking bipartisan consensus. As someone who grew up in the automotive industry and whose father worked at Ford Motor Company, Damoose appreciated every second he got to hear about his dad's day at work, which ultimately laid the foundation for where he is today. Featured Web (18) Reflecting on the Michigan Senate's approval of a $3.5 billion Ford investment to build a battery plant in Marshall, Damoose said, “There is no way in the world I was going to vote against this. This is our industry. This is a quintessential American industry, but it's a quintessential Michigan industry.” He added that supporting this initiative honored his father's legacy at Ford and the industry that shaped Michigan. Key Priorities Discussed Michigan must diversify by building on its core automotive strength, not by turning its back on the industry it created. Michigan needs a long‑term, bipartisan economic development strategy, supported by transparent, reliable, and accessible incentives for startups, suppliers, OEMs, and beyond, providing certainty across political cycles. Dense proximity between OEMs and suppliers is a strategic advantage, reducing risk and cost while accelerating innovation and reinforcing the resilience of Michigan's automotive ecosystem. A strong business climate should benefit the entire economy, and companies must view investment through this lens, not solely individual bottom lines.

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-fifty-second episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.' Hosted by LTC Trevor Jones, the Battalion Commander of 1-509th IN (OPFOR), known as Geronimo, on behalf of the Commander of Operations Group. Today's guests are subject matter experts on drone warfare: LTC Michael Roscoe, COL(Retired) Bill Edwards, CW2 Brendan Henske, LTC(R) Mark Leslie, and CPT Christopher Chelson. LTC Roscoe is the Tactical Analysis, Communications, and Simulations Support (TACSS) Chief. COL(R) Edwards is the Director of Counter-Unmanned Aircraft System Operations for ENSCO. And CW2 Henske is the Senior UAS Operations Planner for Plans / Exercise Maneuver Control (Task Force Zulu). LTC(R) Leslie is the Director of the Directorate of Plans, Training, Mobilization, & Security (DPTMS) for Fort Polk.  CPT Chelson is the Innovation Officer within the Multi-Domain Effects Cell for Geronimo.   This episode explores the rapid evolution of drone warfare, framing it as a true revolution in military affairs and focusing on the dynamic competition between UAS employment and counter-UAS (C-UAS) responses. The discussion highlights how modern conflicts—especially Ukraine—have accelerated innovation, compressing the kill chain and making drones persistent across the battlefield for reconnaissance, targeting, and strike. Units are now facing a layered threat that includes ISR drones, one-way attack systems, and emerging capabilities like fiber-optic controlled UAS that are resistant to traditional electronic warfare. As a result, the battlefield has become increasingly transparent, forcing formations to adapt their tactics, survivability measures, and signature management just to operate.   The conversation then shifts to the C-UAS fight, emphasizing that defeating drones is not a single solution problem but a layered, multi-echelon effort that starts with detection and ends with mitigation or destruction. Key insights include the importance of early warning systems, integration of passive measures like camouflage and dispersion, and the use of both kinetic and non-kinetic defeat mechanisms. The episode underscores that C-UAS is an “everyone problem,” requiring integration across warfighting functions and deliberate ownership at echelon. Ultimately, success in this fight depends less on chasing technological silver bullets and more on combining disciplined fundamentals, clear procedures, and integrated systems to outpace the evolving threat in both offense and defense.   Part of S11 “Conversations with the Enemy” series.   For additional information and insights from this episode, please check-out our Instagram page @the_jrtc_crucible_podcast.   Be sure to follow us on social media to keep up with the latest warfighting TTPs learned through the crucible that is the Joint Readiness Training Center.   Follow us by going to: https://linktr.ee/jrtc and then selecting your preferred podcast format.   Again, we'd like to thank our guests for participating.

The Mirror Method, the WAIT Acronym, and Why "Learn Fast" Beats "Fail Fast": Lee Health CSIO Lisa Martinez on Challenging the Status Quo — Part 2 She walked into a conference room as the only woman in a room full of men in technical data roles. They introduced themselves to each other and started the meeting without acknowledging her at all. She paused, said "excuse me," stated her name, her role, and why she was there. It startled them. She was glad she did it. Because if she hadn't, she wouldn't have belonged in the conversation that followed. In Part 2 of this conversation, Lisa Martinez, Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer at Lee Health, moves from personal story into the specific leadership tools she uses every day to challenge the status quo, orchestrate high-stakes conversations, and move organizations through change without creating enemies. You'll learn: The Mirror Method: why the most dangerous thing you can do when entering a new organization is come in with a fix-it mentality, and the structured listening approach that gets people to agree the status quo needs to change before you ever propose a solution WAIT — "Why Am I Talking?" — the acronym she uses to decide when her voice advances a conversation and when silence does more How she reads the nonverbals of an entire organization the same way she reads body language in a room, and what signals tell her when trust is building and when it isn't Why she stopped relying on PowerPoint and what changed when she started looking people in the eye instead of at her slides, including the mentor advice that saved her: "be ready to deliver a 5-minute version of what you just created"  The difference between intellectual sparring and debate, and how she creates conditions for divergent thinking that actually leads to decisions, not just more discussion Why she says "learn fast" instead of "fail fast", and how she navigates naysayers, skeptics, and the inevitable "you paid how much for what?" moments in healthcare innovation What she looks for when building a team: curiosity, courage, and comfort with ambiguity, and why trustworthiness ranks above everything else About Lisa Martinez: Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer at Lee Health, Lisa leads strategic planning, innovation, and organizational transformation across one of Florida's largest health systems. She is a passionate advocate for women in leadership and women of color in senior roles. Connect with Lisa on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisa-martinez-csio

She missed the scholarship deadline for her MBA. She asked anyway. She got it. She was the only woman in her group project cohort, a single mom with a one-year-old, living paycheck to paycheck. She told her group on day one exactly what she could do and when she was leaving. They respected it. On a business trip with a relatively new manager, she admitted mid-conversation that she wanted to move into a strategy role that didn't even exist yet. That manager became her greatest champion. That pivot launched the career that led her to become Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer at Lee Health. Lisa Martinez has spent her career figuring out what fearless authenticity actually looks like in practice: not as a concept, but as a set of specific choices made in specific moments of risk. In Part 1 of this two-part conversation, she walks through the mindset shifts and early career moves that built her foundation. You'll learn: The exact moment Lisa realized intimidation was her own internal problem, not something others were doing to her and how that realization changed every difficult room she walked into after Why the post-it on her monitor reads "no one wants to feel insignificant, incompetent, or unlikable", and how she uses it to decode defensiveness in herself and others The MBA-as-single-mom stories: how she advocated for a scholarship she'd missed the deadline for, set hard boundaries with her group project team from day one, and created an independent study that wasn't in the curriculum How a candid conversation on a business trip, admitting she wanted a completely different role, launched her entire strategy career, and what she learned about speaking up to managers about your real aspirations Why her first attempt at people management felt completely wrong, and the leadership philosophy she arrived at: "developing leaders, not amassing followers" How conflict made two of her most important professional relationships stronger, not weaker About Lisa Martinez: Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer at Lee Health, Lisa leads strategic planning, innovation, and organizational transformation across one of Florida's largest health systems.

Two hundred episodes. One season finale. Everything in between. If you watched The Pitt this week, you saw something the healthcare industry doesn't usually let the public see. The impossible standards, the double standard, the small wins nobody celebrates, and an entire staff on a roof crying for reasons they can't quite explain. Megan Antonelli and Janae Sharp have spent 200 episodes having the real version of that conversation. For this milestone, they're using The Pitt's Season 2 finale as the mirror and asking what it reflects back at digital health right now. The biggest change nobody saw coming. The win that actually moved the needle. The loss nobody wants to own. And the double standard that's been hiding in plain sight the whole time. No guests. No filter. Just the honest shift report.   Episode 1: View From the Top- What Does Sustainable Innovation look like in a Post Pandemic World Aashima Gupta, Director, Global Health Solutions, Google Rasu Shrestha, MD, EVP, Chief Strategy and Transformation Officer, Atrium Health Chris Waugh, Chief Design and Innovation Officer, Sutter Health  Shahid Shah, CEO Netspective Media (Moderator) Episode 40: Healing - Our Patients, Our Healthcare System, Ourselves Theresa Brown, PhD, BSN, RN Janae Sharp, Founder, The Sharp Index Megan Antonelli,  Chief Executive Officer,  HealthIMPACT Live Episode 56: Burnout Isn't the Whole Story – And Repair Is About More Than Individual Resilience Wendy Dean, MD  Janae Sharp Episode 78: Navigating the Intersection of Equity and Innovation in AI-driven Healthcare Chris Gibbons, Entrepreneur in Residence, Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg Center Janae Sharp Episode 89: From Process-Centric to Patient-Centric - Mayo Clinic CIO Realizing Seamless Integration, Personalized Care, and Empowered Patient Experiences  Cris Ross was at Mayo Megan Antonelli Episode 137: Beyond the Change Healthcare Breach: Redefining Healthcare Cybersecurity for 2025 Rob Sebaugh, Identity Strategist, Healthcare Solutions Engineering, Sailpoint Megan Antonelli Episode 176: From Pilot to Platform - How Sutter Health is Scaling AI Across 3.5 Million Lives Dr. Ashley Beecy, Chief AI Officer at Sutter Health Megan Antonelli   Hosts: Janae Sharp, Founder, The Sharp Index.  The Sharp Index is a nonprofit dedicated to reducing suicide and burnout and improving physician and clinician mental health.

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we explore some of the pivotal shifts and breakthroughs shaping the industry and their implications for drug development and patient care. In oncology, Merck & Co.'s Welireg triplet therapy faced a setback in its Phase 3 trial for first-line treatment of kidney cancer. Despite previous successes, this outcome underscores the complexity of developing oncology treatments and illustrates the ongoing need for innovative approaches to meet diverse patient needs. Meanwhile, Roche has reported promising results for Enspryng in its Phase 3 trial, demonstrating a 68% reduction in relapse risk for a rare neuroinflammatory disorder. This success highlights Roche's commitment to addressing unmet needs in rare diseases and paves the way for potential FDA approval. AstraZeneca continues to advance with Ultomiris, which showed significant results in reducing protein levels in urine for IgA nephropathy patients. This success not only expands Ultomiris' indications but also underscores AstraZeneca's focus on rare diseases, positioning them as leaders in this specialized market. Additionally, AstraZeneca's Tozorakimab met primary endpoints in COPD trials, showcasing new possibilities for managing this prevalent respiratory disease. On another front, Zai Lab's strategic evolution from licensing major pharma drugs to developing its own pipeline marks a significant maturation of China's biotech capabilities. This reflects a broader trend of Chinese firms seeking global footprints while navigating regulatory challenges to gain international credibility. Regulatory and strategic news also has its highlights: Pfizer is undergoing changes as its Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer steps down, possibly signaling a shift in strategic direction. Replimune's drastic workforce reduction following an FDA rejection exemplifies the harsh realities biotech companies face in regulatory pathways. Meanwhile, Gilead's retraction from a collaboration with Arcus Biosciences after a Phase 3 failure underscores the risks associated with antibody-based therapies. In other collaborations, Roche's Foundation Medicine is deepening ties with Bristol Myers Squibb to develop new diagnostic targets, illustrating how partnerships can drive innovation by leveraging combined expertise. In industry trends, there's a growing integration of medical affairs with commercial operations to optimize scientific exchange and product launches—this alignment is critical for ensuring new therapies reach patients efficiently. Eli Lilly's acquisition of Kelonia Therapeutics for up to $7 billion signals an increased focus on in vivo CAR-T capabilities. This acquisition could streamline cancer treatments by engineering T-cells directly within patients' bodies, offering potentially more effective therapeutic approaches. Globally, Biogen has expanded its partnership with TJ Biopharma for Felzartamab rights in China, reflecting strategic moves to penetrate Asian markets. GSK's Blenrep received Chinese approval for treating multiple myeloma, marking a significant advancement with this antibody-drug conjugate targeting BCMA. In Canada, ClearPoint Neuro gained approval for its neuro navigation system, highlighting precision medicine's role in enhancing therapeutic outcomes. The technological landscape is also evolving with Serif pioneering DNA-based therapeutics.

Dr. Babak Saboury, Chief Scientific and Innovation Officer and Physician Founder of United Theranostics, discusses the emergence of nuclear oncology as the fourth pillar of cancer care.  United Theranostics is combining advanced molecular imaging and radiopharmaceutical therapies to identify a cancer cell's unique fingerprint and then delivering targeted radiation, reducing side effects by sparing healthy cells. Molecular imaging can serve as a unifying map for guiding a collaborative, multimodal approach to treating a range of cancers.  Babak explains, "I can just very quickly tell you that there are four pillars of treating cancer. Traditionally, when we approached cancer, we wanted to cut it out. That was surgical oncology. Whatever could not be cut out was treated by giving a medication. That was medical oncology. After a while, there was just a modality to the things that were difficult to cut out, but that was a localized hit from outside. That was the radiation oncology. And right now, we are at the beginning of a new horizon. You treat patients systemically, which means all the lesions everywhere. However, you are really there, a magical radiopharmaceutical that goes to find the cell and kills it by radiation. That's a nuclear oncology. So nuclear oncology is the fourth pillar of cancer care."   "So you can imagine that in the past we tried to attack cancer cells. We didn't know what shape they had, which proteins were expressed, or what their characteristics were. So we kind of went blindly and tried to attack them. Imagine that we have a way to find a fingerprint of those cells and go there first to find that fingerprint. And if the fingerprint exists, then go after those cells as a targeted attack. That is where molecular imaging and radiopharmaceutical therapy come into play. So molecular imaging profiles the cancer cells to see what their fingerprint is and whether a certain fingerprint exists. Radiopharmaceutical therapy uses this information to target just those cells and not other cells. And that is the principle of Theranostics, which is a combination of diagnostics and therapeutics, finding and then destroying in a very precise manner." #UnitedTheranostics #NuclearOncology #PrecisionMedicine #Radiopharmaceuticals #CancerCare #MolecularImaging #Theranostics #OncologyInnovation #PatientCare #HealthcareInnovation #CancerTreatment Unitedtheranostics.com Download the transcript here

Communication is the backbone of every military operation. How well our forces talk to each other across air, land, sea and space is what sets the American military apart from everyone else. Without communication leaders can't lead, and militaries can't win.

Banks love to claim they are high-tech and high-touch. The truth is, most are neither, and the gap between what institutions promise and what customers experience is widening fast. It is costing banks billions in lost trust, slower growth, and missed opportunities, especially as expectations accelerate across the rest of people's financial lives. At Fintech NerdCon in Miami, I sat down with two leaders who are actually closing that gap. Siya Vansia, Chief Brand and Innovation Officer at ConnectOne Bank, and Suzan Chaffin, EVP of Solutions at LoanPro, are showing what modern banking looks like when technology, culture, and leadership come together with clarity and purpose. Our Banking Transformed conversation dives into the real work behind transformation.
