A project in China that is developing an autonomous and self-evolving virtual healthcare setting is targeted to go public next year. This is confirmed to Healthcare IT News by Yang Liu, a professor at Tsinghua University's Department of Computer Science and Technology and co-research head of the Agent Hospital project. The virtual hospital concept, developed by researchers at the university's Institute for AI…

PFAS are synthetic chemicals widely used in products such as non-stick cookware and waterproof clothing due to their water and grease-resistant properties. However, their persistence in the environment has led to widespread contamination and significant health concerns, including links to cancer and immune system disorders.
