Can we get personalized meal plans based our Genetics?

In this episode of The Health Innovation Playground, we sit down with Melina Mauro, a nutritionist working at the fascinating intersection of genetics and nutrition. We have a nice chat about everything food and nutrition.

We explore everything about how we eat: from the basics of eating well to the deep influence of culture on our choices. We dive into the science of longevity and how understanding your unique genetic code could be the key to unlocking better health.

We discuss:

- Genetics vs. Habits: How much control do we really have?

- The Culture of Food: How our eating habits affect our health

- Precision Nutrition: How your DNA can guide you to the food that is actually better for you.

Whether you are looking to optimize your health or just curious about the future of food, this conversation is for you.

Is the future of dentistry drill-free? Today, we are joined by Dr. Manjushree Bagri to discuss the transition from "Drill and Fill" to "Predict and Prevent."

We dive deep into the technologies disrupting oral healthcare and the systemic issues causing dentist burnout.

Key Topics Covered:

• AI in Diagnostics: How data visualization builds patient trust.

• 3D Printing: Moving from messy impressions to chairside biomaterials.

• The Systemic Connection: Understanding the mouth as a lab for the whole body.

• Accessibility: The vision for "Smile on Wheels" and democratic dental care.

Is Artificial Intelligence going to replace doctors? Or will it just replace the paperwork?

In this episode of The Health Innovation Playground, we sit down with Alex Aísa, a Telecommunications Engineer and AI Expert at the Innovation Unit of Vall d'Hebron Hospital. We strip away the futuristic hype to talk about what is actually happening inside one of Barcelona’s biggest hospitals.

Alex explains why the biggest challenge isn't building the algorithm—it's cleaning the data and accesing it.

In this episode, we explore:

• Actual usage of AI in todays's hospital

• • Implementation Reality: Why innovation moves slower in healthcare than in tech.
  • Why Hospitals need Innovation Units

• • The Future: Why Alex believes AI will finally give doctors time to look patients in the eye again.

  If you are a curious about the future of medicine with AI, this conversation bridges the gap between the code and the bedside.
