Bryce Olson, Intel Global Marketing Director, Health and Life Sciences and stage 4 cancer survivor, set out to find better treatment for his illness through technology. Bryce, Intel and the cancer center at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) utilized genomics data and precision medicine driven by AI technology revealing Olson’s disease was fueled by a mutated pathway deep in his DNA. By using AI to sift through his data as well as millions of other patients with a similar condition, clinical trial testing identified a new inhibitor of the mutated pathway. Olson underwent treatment based on this discovery and is now in remission.
