Towards Conversational Medical AI with Eyes, Ears and a Voice

The practice of medicine relies not only upon skillful dialogue but also on the nuanced exchange and interpretation of rich auditory and visual cues between doctors and patients. Building on the low-latency voice and video processing capabilities of Gemini, we introduce AI co-clinician, a first-of-its-kind conversational AI system utilizing continuous streams of audio-visual data from live patient conversations to inform real-time clinical decisions. Its dual-agent architecture balances deep clinical reasoning with the low latency required for natural dialogue. To assess this system, we implemented a video-based interface emulating telemedicine consultations. We crafted 20 standardized outpatient scenarios requiring proactive real-time auditory and visual reasoning and designed "TelePACES" evaluation criteria alongside case-specific rubrics. In a randomized, interface-blinded, crossover simulation study (n = 120 encounters) with 10 internal medicine residents as patient actors, we compared AI co-clinician with primary care physicians (PCPs), GPT-Realtime, and a baseline agent. AI co-clinician approached PCPs in key TelePACES dimensions, including management plans and differential diagnosis, while significantly outperforming GPT-Realtime across all general criteria. While our agent demonstrated parity with PCPs in case-specific triage measures, physicians maintained superior overall performance in case-specific assessments. Although AI co-clinician marks a significant advance in real-time telemedical AI, gaps remain in physical examination and disease-specific reasoning. Our work shows that text-only approaches fail to capture the true challenges of medical consultation and suggests that high-stakes real-time diagnostic AI is most safely advanced in collaborative, triadic models where AI can be a supportive co-clinician for doctors and patients.

MOOMIN: Deep Molecular Omics Network for Anti-Cancer Drug Combination Therapy

We propose the molecular omics network (MOOMIN) a multimodal graph neural network used by AstraZeneca oncologists to predict the synergy of drug combinations for cancer treatment. Our model learns drug representations at multiple scales based on a drug-protein interaction network and metadata. Structural properties of compounds and proteins are encoded to create vertex features for a message-passing scheme that operates on the bipartite interaction graph. Propagated messages form multi-resolution drug representations which we utilized to create drug pair descriptors. By conditioning the drug combination representations on the cancer cell type we define a synergy scoring function that can inductively score unseen pairs of drugs. Experimental results on the synergy scoring task demonstrate that MOOMIN outperforms state-of-the-art graph fingerprinting, proximity preserving node embedding, and existing deep learning approaches. Further results establish that the predictive performance of our model is robust to hyperparameter changes. We demonstrate that the model makes high-quality predictions over a wide range of cancer cell line tissues, out-of-sample predictions can be validated with external synergy databases, and that the proposed model is data efficient at learning.
