We hope this work supports more reliable and principled approaches to handling missingness in EHRs, where incomplete data are the norm.

This study systematically compares seven methodological paradigms for managing missingness (within or across modalities) in EHR data, highlighting how different algorithmic assumptions influence performance under different missingness distributions.

AlphaFold has been a transformation not just in structural biology but also - due to its ability to be applied to all proteins - to molecular biology as a whole.

AI performs well on facts, but fails when it comes to symptoms | ICT&health Global An important explanation lies in the nature of the language ChatGPT uses. Even more worrying is that it does not indicate when it does not know something.

ChatGPT scores up to 97% on medical facts β€” yet fails to read symptoms. Experts like Ahmed Abdeen Hamed and Dr Andrew Thornton warn: AI can inform, not diagnose. The real challenge now? Using it responsibly in healthcare. #healthcare
