How to make medical products that avoid Eroom’s law

Read the transcript here.

Despite life sciences’ developments in science, instrumentation, data generation and compute power, Eroom’s law dictates that the price of developing new medical treatments doubles every nine years.

Since the future of the medical field trends towards personalized healthcare, however, the economies of scale no longer work if each bespoke treatment follows this nine-year trend. To bend the law into one that better resembles Moore’s law, life sciences experts need industrial AI and the comprehensive digital twin.

In this podcast you will learn:

  • 02:54 – How Eroom’s law dictates product development in the life sciences
  • 06:35 – What data strategy challenges exist for personalized healthcare
  • 10:25 – How to implement personalized healthcare in the wake of Eroom’s law
  • 13:57 – How industrial AI and the comprehensive digital twin help
