About this episode

The episode discusses how AI can predict health risks based on sleep patterns, featuring insights from Dr. James Zou.

Surprisingly, what happens during one night of sleep might reveal more about your health than years of doctor visits. James Zou, PhD, Associate Professor of Biomedical Data Science at Stanford University, discusses AI technology that he developed that can predict a person’s risk for 130 different diseases—including cancer, heart disease, and dementia—just by analyzing a night of sleep.
