“The American Heart Association has always been a trailblazer in driving innovation at the intersection of science and patient-centered technology to further strengthen heart and brain health. As we begin our second century, we will continue advancing health and hope for everyone, everywhere,” said Nancy Brown, chief executive officer of the American Heart Association.
“As AI continues to evolve, the American Cancer Society will continue to explore its potential to improve the lives of cancer patients and their families,” said Dr. Wayne A.I. Frederick, interim CEO, American Cancer Society and American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network. “We want to ensure its use remains responsible, ethical and equitable and that it also prioritizes the relationship between health care professionals and those they serve.”
“Smile Train’s focus on innovation and technology has transformed millions of lives through cleft care in the last 25 years and promises an even brighter future for our patients,” said Susannah Schaefer, president and CEO of Smile Train. “From virtual reality surgical training and solar-powered operating rooms to digital tools connecting patients in remote areas, we are bridging gaps in cleft treatment and reshaping global health altogether.”
“We are at a transformational moment in Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. Rapid advances in technology are speeding the pace of discovery around how we prevent, detect and treat Alzheimer’s and dementia, while helping the Alzheimer’s Association more effectively and efficiently meet the needs of people living with dementia, their families, and their communities,” said Joanne Pike, DrPH, president and CEO of the Alzheimer’s Association. “We expect continued advances in innovation will further enhance both how we work and how we serve the people who count on us for information and support.”
