One of my projects, #VizierDB, evolved into a company called #BreadcrumbAnalytics a few years ago. I'm proud of the tech, but want to call out the CEO, Tom Slowe, for being a real stand up guy, and for steering the company accordingly. I will admit to bias here, and they're by no means unique in this respect, but it's refreshing to see a company who's path to success involves not only empowering communities, but also explicitly distancing itself from the communities' power centers.

Tom was on the National Pharmaceutical Congress podcast last week, talking about the importance of context and #Provenance, and of keeping humans in the driver's seat when using AI to support pharmaceutical research.

JAMA Paper: In People with Opioid Use Disorder, Telemedicine Treatment for HCV was More Than Twice as Successful as Off-Site Referral
