Inside Scope

Welcome to our six-part series: Increasing Diversity in IBD Clinical Trials. This program will explore how to become a clinical trialist and increase diversity in IBD clinical trials. In this supersized episode, co-host Dr. Ayanna Lewis is joined by guest Dr. Ryan Stidham, an associate professor at the University of Michigan holding appointments in the departments of medicine and computational medicine. Dr. Stidham is a medical data scientist and has a research program that focuses on the development and testing of new technologies for disease assessment and decision making in gastroenterology and general medicine. Today’s discussion will explore how artificial intelligence may help address challenges with participant recruitment for clinical trials, while also discussing the role of AI in the field of gastroenterology more broadly.
