Kamna Mamidyala entered college unsure how artificial intelligence would intersect with her plans to pursue a career in medicine.
The incoming second-year biology major at Stevens Institute of Technology said she initially viewed AI as something separate from patient care and clinical work. But through her university’s newly launched Artificial Intelligence in Biology and Chemistry (AiBC) Community, she gained firsthand exposure to how the technology can support scientific research, analyze large datasets and accelerate discoveries in the life sciences.
“My understanding was, in a hospital setting, at least, that no AI is going to be able to do the work as well as a human can,” Mamidyala said. “But with the [AiBC Community], I was able to see that AI can be used as a tool to help humans do more efficient work.”
