'It's important not only to design for the contexts of the market, but also to distill it further to the context of your target user. When you are working with end users, many will have vastly different profiles and health needs -how can your solution go beyond general information to meet the specific profile of an individual user?'

'AI has the power to leapfrog outdated, resource-intensive systems and deliver personalized, life-saving care to everyone—regardless of their location, language, or technological access.
