NYU Langone Health

In a first for NYU Langone Health, three of our leaders were selected to present at Fast Company’s Innovation Festival last month, sharing how our work is shaking up the healthcare industry.   The Innovation Festival is all about bringing together innovative minds for inspiring chats, meaningful networking, and hands-on workshops. Our presenters included:   • Dr. Paul Glimcher, chair of the Department of Neuroscience and Physiology at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, talked about how our brains work and how understanding this can help us make better decisions. He reminded everyone, “Be aware that your decision-making processes change across your lifespan. This means fine-tuning it at every point in your life to your greatest strengths.” • Dr. JR Rizzo, our system director of Disability Inclusion, joined a panel focused on healthcare innovation and the importance of a more inclusive world. He highlighted a pressing issue, saying, “We’re riddled with access barriers at this point. The future of healthcare must be accessible and universally designed.” • Elizabeth Golden, our executive vice president for Communications, Marketing, and Government and Community Affairs, participated in a lively discussion about how new technologies and multichannel strategies can help us stand out in a crowded market. She shared her insights, stating, “When we think about breaking through and communicating in the best way, it’s about making healthcare more approachable and meeting people where they are on their journey.”   It was a fantastic opportunity to showcase our commitment to innovation and inclusion in healthcare!

Dr. Marc Triola, associate dean for educational informatics and professor of medicine at NYU Langone Health, recently joined Dr. Mark Pochapin MD on SiriusXM's Doctor Radio show, “Chief Rounds,” to discuss AI's transformative role in healthcare. As the founding director of the Institute for Innovations in Medical Education (IIME), Dr. Triola is a self-described “AI optimist.” He sees incredible potential for AI to enhance patient care—from answering patient questions to improving chronic condition management and even leading to more accurate diagnoses. “I see AI as a co-pilot, supporting doctors by ensuring our decisions are backed by the most up-to-date evidence specific to each patient.” Dr. Triola’s forward-thinking approach underscores NYU Langone’s commitment to innovation and excellence in patient care.
