Code & Cure
Decoding health in the age of AI
Hosted by an AI researcher and a medical doctor, this podcast unpacks how artificial intelligence and emerging technologies are transforming how we understand, measure, and care for our bodies and minds.
Each episode unpacks a real-world topic to ask not just what’s new, but what’s true—and what’s at stake as healthcare becomes increasingly data-driven.
If you're curious about how health tech really works—and what it means for your body, your choices, and your future—this podcast is for you.
We’re here to explore ideas—not to diagnose or treat. This podcast doesn’t provide medical advice.

“Put a human in the loop” sounds like common sense. But when we actually look at how medical AI shows up in busy clinical workflows, that slogan can become a liability. We unpack why oversight often turns into a checkbox, how responsibility qui...
#60 - We Can Teach Medical AI To Look Like Experts
If you’ve ever wondered why an AI model can sound confident while still being wrong, radiology is the perfect lens. We’re looking at a new approach to medical imaging AI that tries to close the gap between raw pattern matching and real clinical...
#59 - When a Humanoid Robot Removes A Gallbladder
What happens when the “robot surgeon” stops being a fixed set of arms and starts walking into the operating room like a person? We explore a fresh research result where a teleoperated humanoid robot performs laparoscopic gallbladder surgery in ...

A pregnancy from two viable sperm recovered by AI sounds impossible until you walk through the workflow step by step. We start with the reality that male factor infertility can drive a huge share of infertility cases, and we talk about why “no ...
#57 - If We Can Invent New Viruses Should We
AI can now “autocomplete” DNA, and researchers are using that ability to design real, working viruses in the lab. We dig into a Science paper that trains genome language models to generate brand-new bacteriophage genomes, then validates them by...
