Episode Synopsis
Dr. Jules Benson, BVSc, MRCVS, Chief Veterinary Officer at Nationwide, joins Dr. Andy Roark to talk about the power (and scarcity) of big data in veterinary medicine. They discuss how medical data is currently being collected in clinics and by pet insurance companies, and how this data can be harnessed to achieve better clinical outcomes while increasing access to care. Jules and Andy discuss the requirement for artificial intelligence to be trained on large data sets, and Jules explains how he thinks data collection inside veterinary practices will look in 10 years.
