At the European Health Summit in Brussels, Greg Corrado, Distinguished Scientist at Google, released a new report authored by Implement Consulting Group and commissioned by Google revealing that AI is reversing the long-term trend of slowing scientific productivity, providing a turning point for a European healthcare system grappling with rising costs and workforce shortages.
The report highlights how AI is already giving practitioners "time back," such as cutting emergency room wait times by over an hour.
Building on this momentum, Google announced at the Summit $5 million in funding from Google.org for Bayes Impact to launch "Impulse Healthcare," a new EU health initiative. The project will empower frontline nurses, doctors, and administrators to build and experiment their own AI solutions on Bayes Impact's open-source platform. The end goal is to scale these practitioner-led innovations across the EU, freeing up precious clinical time to improve patient care.
