In a significant leap for India’s medical research landscape, JSS Academy of Higher Education and Research (JSS AHER), Mysuru, has joined forces with Google Research on a pioneering artificial intelligence (AI) healthcare initiative. The outcomes of this collaboration were recently published in two prestigious papers in the journal Nature, underscoring the project’s global relevance and impact.
At the heart of the research lies the development of the Articulate Medical Intelligence Explorer (AMIE) — an innovative AI system designed by Google Research to improve diagnostic precision and enhance communication between doctors and patients. The studies assessed AMIE’s capabilities in comparison with trained primary care physicians, using standardized, text-based medical consultations across healthcare systems in India, the UK, and Canada.
Dr. B. Suresh, Pro-Chancellor of JSS AHER, expressed pride in the institution’s role in shaping the future of healthcare, stating, “We are at the cutting edge of digital health and AI innovation. In line with these advances, we have also revised our pharmacy curriculum to include AI, ensuring our graduates are equipped for the evolving landscape of medicine.”
Echoing this vision, Vice-Chancellor Dr. H. Basavanagowdappa highlighted the institution’s commitment to fostering an innovation-centric academic environment. “This international collaboration enhances our academic standing and gives our students and faculty the opportunity to tackle real-world healthcare issues. Our mission is to develop forward-looking solutions for global health,” he said.
With this partnership, JSS AHER cements its position as a leading hub for digital health research, merging academic excellence with cutting-edge technological collaboration.
