AMIA: For Your Informatics: Daily Summaries Delivered
by AMIA
For Your Informatics Podcast was created by and for members to inform and inspire the informatics community towards action around opportunities for women in AMIA to improve health and healthcare. As a part of this mission, in 2018 champions of the Women in AMIA initiative, Drs. Wendy Chapman, Jessie Tenenbaum, Deepti Pandita, Merida Johns, and Laurie Griggs, started the Women in AMIA (WIA) Podcast. The WIA Podcast was an outlet to share opportunities for women in AIMA, to promote equal opportunity and treatment of women in biomedical informatics, and to increase the number of women in the biomedical informatics pipeline. Now, renamed 'For Your Informatics' Podcast where we explore the limitless world of medical informatics. 'For Your Informatics' Podcast is still led by the Women in AMIA and showcases talented individuals at all career stages and share paths to reveal the limitless and diverse world of biomedical and health informatics professions and its diverse voices to inspire greatness in the field. We recognize that women are not the only underrepresented group in AMIA or biomedical informatics, and the podcast content is valuable to everyone. While the podcast remains produced by women, we hope to capture the interest of all people interested in the informatics world. Our core values are inclusivity, diversity, education, and leadership. Our mission is to attract people from underrepresented groups into the biomedical informatics field, to create podcasts that can be used in multipurpose settings, to add underrepresented groups to the AMIA/biomedical informatics pipeline, and to teach practical aspects of biomedical informatics.

For your Informatics: Episode 52: ACM-AMIA Joint Podcast Series with Haider Warraich
In this episode, part of a special collaboration between ACM ByteCast and the American Medical Informatics Association (AMIA)'s For Your Informatics podcast, Sabrina Hsueh and Li Zhou host Haider Warraich, a Program Manager at the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) and a practicing cardiologist at Boston Medical Center. At ARPA-H he leads the ADVOCATE program that supports the development, regulation, evaluation and deployment of Clinical Agentic AI to revolutionize care delivery for patients with chronic disease. Previously, he served at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as a Senior Clinical Advisor for Chronic Disease to the FDA Commissioner, where he helped shape policy around drugs, devices, nutrition, digital health, and AI. Before that, Warraich was a faculty member at Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women's Hospital and Director of the Heart Failure Program, at the Veterans Affairs Health System in Boston. He is the author of more than 180 peer reviewed papers and several books. His writing has also appeared in The New York Times, The Guardian and The Atlantic. The episode explores how agentic AI can address critical gaps in chronic disease management, focusing on heart failure and cardiovascular health. Dr. Warraich shares insights from his transition through clinical practice, academic research, the FDA, and his current role at ARPA-H, notably the newly launched ADVOCATE program, an ARPA-H initiative designed to build, evaluate, and deploy FDA-ready, patient-facing agentic AI technologies to serve as clinician extenders. The discussion covers geographic access gaps in care, autonomous agents and "copilots," the current state of AI evaluation, and extending the ADVOCATE program from heart failure to all chronic disease management.
