A Data-Driven Approach to Healthcare - Brain Injury and Disease Research

Cloud adoption & data pipeline automation in healthcare

Traditionally, healthcare advancements have progressed slowly due to siloed research and delayed results. However, with cloud application modernization, all that is changing for good. A unique collaboration between life sciences organizations and digital solution providers is offering an unprecedented level of insight into managing conditions and achieving optimal patient outcomes. Cloud modernization is expanding healthcare organizations’ ability to use data pipeline automation to effectively diagnose patients.

A prime example of cloud adoption is a nonprofit research organization dedicated to biomedical research and technology. The organization has been instrumental in facilitating advances in brain injury and disease research through its launch of the first cloud-based and interactive platform that supports information and idea exchange to further progress in neuroscience research. It uses big data to promote computational innovation discovery in brain diseases.

Co-created by Hitachi and other partners, this platform is a trusted portal where clinical researchers, physicians, and organizations can collaborate on research and the validation of emerging therapeutics.

The context of merging human and artificial intelligence for analyzing health data

Medical research data is becoming siloed, diverse, and complex. To break this complexity, a robust IT infrastructure with the capacity to aggregate data across multiple studies is required along with harnessing patients’ data to improve the healthcare system.

The organization needed an interactive and scalable platform that would be capable of integrating diverse cohorts and investigators and equipped with a high computing speed that is essential in machine learning and artificial intelligence applications.

These new capabilities would empower users to gain a comprehensive understanding of signature patterns within existing and emerging large-scale datasets and to foster collaboration to promote the efficient use of the research community’s collective knowledge of brain injuries and diseases.

With time, the organization recognized that meeting these challenges would require the expertise of specialists in data pipeline automation and healthcare data solutions to meet the steep requirements of the healthcare industry. Having heard of Hitachi, the organization turned to us for our Cloud Managed Services.

Leveraging healthcare data analytics solutions to build more sophisticated infrastructure

The organization wanted to collaborate with Hitachi to upgrade the user interface and augment the platform’s experience for researchers and the virtual analytical environment to ensure secure data management.

Hitachi was able to deliver an integrated solution that encompassed each component of the build-out. This streamlined project management made the process more efficient and data-driven healthcare innovation helped to further modernize, streamline, and simplify the health diagnostic system for the research organization.

Infrastructure that enables innovation

Cloud modernization was central to helping the organization maximize value in its transformation journey and boost the lives of people. While the organization began with a vision, advances in cloud-based data management, storage, and security brought that to fruition. The interactive platform now allows the organization to leverage best practices to tap into the potency of data pipeline automation and utilization.

Hitachi’s commitment to social innovation 

For Hitachi, this project has particular resonance because it is aligned with its commitment to social innovation. To have played a role in accelerating this process and in bringing life-changing drugs and therapies to patients more quickly is always rewarding.

Dennis Ledenkof, CEO & Founder of roboSculptor – Interview Series

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/dennis-ledenkof-ceo-founder-of-robosculptor-interview-series/

Dennis Ledenkof, CEO & Founder of roboSculptor – Interview Series

Dennis Ledenkof is the CEO and founder of roboSculptor the roboSculptor, an autonomous platform for body treatments developed by health industry experts and powered by AI. It ideally fits the longevity concept and delivers precise, safe, and comfortable touchless wellness treatments.

Can you share the journey that led you to create roboSculptor?

I came up with the idea to build a robotic body therapy system in 2019 during my trip to the US. I was looking for a distributor for an aesthetics device. While the potential partner liked the results, the procedure was too time-consuming and required highly skilled labor, making the unit economics unclear. The procedure took an hour and was physically demanding, with such specialists being hard to find. During that trip, I did not get a distributor, but I got valuable advice. To invent something that does not require human power. 

It took my team nine months to make a demo that showcased the concept of a robotic massage. At first, we wanted to develop a product that simply combined the classic shape of a body contouring device with a cobot. You know, just on top of it. It seemed like an easy-to-implement idea. 

1st iteration of adding a robot to a traditional aesthetic device. Scheme.

However, as we delved deeper into the project, we realized our initial vision didn’t align with the intricate demands of the system we were building. We underestimated the complexity of the venture. 

The next iteration of the  system got a tunnel-like shape.

Early version of roboSculptor – portal-like shape.

It has been exhibited in some trade shows as a concept. The feedback was that the machine appeared quite massive and, to some, even intimidating. During additional robot movement tests, our engineers found that the system wasn’t rigid enough to perform massage movements at higher speeds. After collecting all this information the engineers started to work on a new structure. It was a challenging task to build it. Still, it resulted in a different, more open and friendly design. 

The actual roboSculptor design.

How has your experience with previous ventures influenced the development of roboSculptor?

Working in the aesthetics market for over a decade gives you a solid understanding of where trends tend to shift, you start to learn more about the companies and what products they build. But most importantly, you learn to see the gaps between what the market needs and what other players do. 

With experience in implementing body contouring devices, our company set out to develop a robotic system capable of delivering a full-body therapeutic massage based on lymphatic drainage. The Vibrocompression by spheres method goes beyond mere relaxation—it’s a scientifically proven technique for reducing body volume and improving skin oxygenation, achieved solely through mechanical application. No laser or electromagnetic emission. Pretty natural and healthy although very efficient treatment. All we do is just combine decades of experience and research with currently available tech and robotic instruments. 

How does roboSculptor utilize AI and robotics to personalize massage techniques?

Our engineers discovered that building a robotic machine for body treatment requires a system capable of translating the position of a physical body into signals the machine can understand. Simply put, we needed to create a digital map of the human body to guide a robotic manipulator. This is a significant challenge, but an even bigger one is the need to constantly track the patient’s position—known as dynamic pose detection—because humans can move unexpectedly. And most people wouldn’t want a massage in a spot where their leg was just a few seconds ago.

To solve this, we developed a system using four lidars that create a point cloud, which is combined with a 3D model of the human body and constantly updated. This map then guides the robot over the body’s surface. Building this map correctly requires analyzing a significant amount of data. To accurately detect the pose, we have created an AI/ML model that optimizes pose detection. Our system can now map the body at a speed of 5-10 frames per second and provide the robot with proper commands to execute massage protocols.

How does roboSculptor incorporate feedback from users and therapists to refine its algorithms?

When it comes to massage therapy, there has always been a certain level of subjectivity around what is effective. For instance, what pressure level is required to perform an efficient procedure? A robotic massage system gives us a precise instrument for measuring pressure in grams and controlling tool movement speed. We’ve designed the system in a way that the manipulator’s movements are recorded with all precise dynamics and pressure levels. The movement history maylater be replayed and analyzed by algorithms. By comparing patient preferences with specific parts of the movement history, we can pinpoint the most effective techniques for each individual, similar to how a popular video platform uses likes to determine viewer preferences. Gathering more data on the effectiveness of treatments will ultimately improve the quality of care based on big data analysis.

Could you explain the role of the 3D camera system in enhancing the effectiveness of the treatments?

A robot is an automated system that may interact with real objects based on the task it is preprogrammed for. Simply put, it is a machine that can see, make decisions and act according to its assigned tasks.  One of the most effective ways to detect a human body’s position is by using Lidars—3D depth sensors, often referred to as ‘3D cameras.’ They help create a detailed 3D map of the patient’s body. You can think of massage lines as tracks that are mapped onto the patient’s body. Lidars generate a point cloud, which is then used to build this precise map.

Dennis, the founder of roboSculptor, envisioned by 3D scanners as a point cloud.

Can you explain how the system adapts a massage session based on the user’s biometric feedback?

During the procedure, patients can also adjust the pressure level. The system is paired with an app that lets users define ‘no-go zones’—sensitive areas the machine should avoid during treatment.”

It’s not really biometric feedback that we implement in the current version, although we have evaluated different analysis systems like measuring BMI, skin quality, etc. While these could make the system more personalized, they would also complicate its operation. At later stages, we will get back to these topics. The current version of roboSculptor allows patiens to choose various treatment programs depending on their goals, with the choice acting as a setting. During the procedure, patients can also adjust the pressure level. The system is paired with an app that lets users define ‘no-go zones’—sensitive areas the machine should avoid during treatment.

What significant challenges did you face while developing roboSculptor, and how did you overcome them?

First comes the security. Fortunately for clients, you can’t just put a product or a technology on the market without passing all the necessary tests. But passing them takes time for business, sometimes more than expected. Moreover, the complex interplay between innovation and regulation can slow the adoption of disruptive technologies, leading to a paradoxical situation where cutting-edge solutions face resistance from traditional frameworks. 

Economic uncertainty adds another layer of complexity. Fluctuations in market demand, regulatory changes, and unexpected geopolitical events can all throw a wrench. For starters, they may affect the feasibility and profitability of startups and repel potential investors with the finances to support product development. And raising funding for robotics is hard enough now as it is. Historically, investors hesitate to back robotics ventures due to the high cost of research, development, prototyping, manufacturing, and longer development cycles compared to software-based ventures. We can see this from companies like ARTAS, the developer of a robot for hair transplantation, which still hasn’t turned a profit.

Moreover, some solutions are hard to replicate quickly due to their high costs. Therefore, companies may not grow at the pace that you would expect. And it could take years for investors to exit and get returns from their investments. 

What machine learning techniques are used to enhance the therapeutic outcomes of roboSculptor continually?

Body detection involves processing a large amount of data. To optimize the method of pose detection in real-time, we use a neural network. Through machine learning, we’ve developed a model that continuously monitors patients’ body positions in real time. This data is used to update a body map that assists a robot in delivering a customized massage. This allows the robot to adapt to any posture changes and provide precise tool positioning and effective treatment.

How do you see the role of AI and robotics evolving in the healthcare and wellness sectors over the next decade?

According to data from the International Spa Association (iSpa), there was a shortage of 29,000 massage therapists in the US in 2022. And the deficit is still present. Robotic solutions can close this gap. Another benefit is that they can provide massages to those who cannot resort to traditional masseuses for different reasons (from being uncomfortable with human touch to cultural nuances). 

In addition, robotic and AI-based solutions can significantly increase the revenue of SPA providers. For starters, robots can work more efficiently than humans, performing tasks faster and more precisely. Our research shows that they can perform double the procedures of a human therapist, generating up to 2.4 times more revenue for wellness facilities. Moreover, operational costs could drop by up to 40%, with returns on investment hitting 54% per device annually.

Furthermore, integrating robots and AI in healthcare can automate routine tasks, allowing healthcare professionals to focus more on direct patient care and complex decision-making. These technologies can also reduce errors, improve efficiency, and improve patient service. 

How do you envision roboSculptor transforming the wellness industry?

One of the problems in hotels’ SPA/wellness centers is the lack of skilled therapists. During the pandemic, some therapists who lost their jobs at that time just changed professions. The others do not want to work full-time and prefer more life in their work-life balance than before. The other one is that therapist’s schedules are determined by labor laws and their physical abilities. In the era of continuously rising consumption, the demand needs to be covered. And the labor market does not have enough specialists to offer. 

As cited in ISPA 2023 research paper ‘Staff shortages were most often cited as the primary reason given by spas reporting a decrease in their weekly hours of operation and also those saying they had decreased the number of service provider shifts per day.

Limited SPA zones working hours decrease the return on investment of SPA and wellness centres. In the nearest healthcare industry, it’s physiotherapists’ needs are far from fully covered by specialists available.

Labor is one of the limitations in many industries and economics in general. I believe that implementing automation will not only deliver treatments at more flexible and convenient times for consumers but also significantly impact the wellness industry. By adding robotics, we can expand accessibility to vital services and ensure consistent quality for a much larger number of people worldwi

2. A friend and I are hoping you can help find a fic for the next fic finder. It's a modern AU and LWJ is on the autism spectrum but wasn't tested until he was an adult because LQR either didn't want him tested or was in denial about it when LWJ was a child. There was possibly an aunt that was on the spectrum too. We can't remember anything else about it and have gone through the autistic lwj tag and our bookmarks on ao3 but none that we found sounded right. Thanks in advance!

3. Good day to all! There is a twitter fic that I wanted to read again but I forgot to save it (or like it). Can you help me find it?

Its about foxxian who goes into heat and he spend his heat with dragonji. Foxxian got pregnant and the jiang keep asking who is the father. Apparently, foxxian doesn’t know who is it. Then, when he gave birth, 3 eggs came out. The jiangs are shock. And when the eggs were hatch, all of them are dragons. So the jiangs knew now that the one who impregnant foxxian is a dragon from Lan Clan.

Thank you so much!

5. hi!! Thank you for all the hard work you are putting! I'm looking for fic where wwx is in the hospital after a car accident. When he wakes up he doesn't remember lwj because he has a six years memory loss and the two of them met five years prior to the accident. They were also about to get married. Lwj played the violin for a living and composed music for Disney if I'm not mistaken. Wwx was an engineer for prosthetic parts and he was working with wq. That's all I remember. If you have the time, I would love if you looked for it!

6. Hello! im looking for this wangxian fic that ive been missing for awhile now. I dont remember much but it was modern and everyone was a hitman or assassin (?) all i remember is that people were involved in the killing business. the only scene i remember is that JGS or JGY dies in the bathtub by being shot by LWJ or LXC. Oh thats another thing im pretty sure the way LWJ killed was by clean shots to the head. I know there's smut in it. It frustrates me so much that i cant remember more this was one of the first wangxian fics i remember reading

FOUND! 🧡 modus operandi by synonemous (E, 21k, WangXian, Modern AU, Serial killer WangXian, Eventual happy ending, WangXian's Canon Kinks, Smut) Not everything fits - they are serial killers and jgy dies in a bathtub, but he wasn't shot / I think #6 is modus operandi too! HGJ kills with headshots, but JGY gets taken out by ZWJ, who comes out of retirement just for that one personal hit.

8. Hi i’m looking for a fic that I read a while ago but can’t find. Wei wuxian gets sent back in time after his death to the cloud recesses lectures. He ends up in the middle of a lecture and starts crying. He can’t handle it and attempts suicide by jumping off a cliff at cloud recesses but he is found and saved. I think he gets sanctuary or something but i’m not sure. Thank you your page is a life savor!! @st3wartladle​

~*~

9. Looking for a vampire WWX/Hunter LWJ fic, that started with LWJ kneeling for the marriage ceremony and being bit, then the rest after that involved LWJ trying to keep away from WWX for his own good before they both get together. LWJ stays human. I think I found it on AO3? @bcaugust

It's not the right one(though it is one of my favorites and really close to the same vibe.) I also remember that the vampire bite would scar to indicate a spouse, if that helps anyone.

Not FOUND I Think Sunshine Would Treat Me Kind by vassal101 (T, 24k, WangXian, Exorcist LWJ, Vampire WWX, Human/Vampire Relationship, Fantasy, Vampire Bites, Enemies to Friends to Lovers, Protective LWJ, Pining LWJ, Jealous LWJ, Pining WWX, POV LWJ, First Kiss, First Love, Hurt/Comfort, Love Confessions, Assassination Plot(s), Undercover Missions, Breaking Up & Making Up, Blood Drinking, Consensual Blood Drinking, horny vampire drinks from equally horny human, Falling In Love, i would say this is more angst than fluff, but it's not too too sad dw, Happy Ending, POV Third Person) reminded me of this one? Doesn't start with a wedding though, lwj simply arrives as a peace offering

~*~

10. Hi!

So I'm looking for a fic that I can't find where I can't remember what exactly happened, but it goes something like this;

Lwj and Wwx are sleeping, Lwj gets a nightmare, and he doesn't tell Wwx about it, but he figures it out anyway and then Wwx waits to see whether Lwj will go back to sleep or have sex. They have rough sex in which Wwx specifically requests that he doesn't want to come. And then they talk (I think it was just outside on a porch or something?) And then Lwj fingers him and gets him off.

I'm sorry I don't remember more, I think it was one chapter and I'm really desperately trying to find this fic. If you could find it it would be much appreciated!!

Thank you!

~*~

11. Heya mods, I'd really appreciate it if you could find this fic. It was about God Lan Wanji and him trying to find fellow god Wei Wuxian after he went missing. LWJ found him with the Dafan Wens and was living happily as a mortal with them. He wondered why WWX wasn't leaving or even thinking about his position as a god, but then it's revealed that his robes (which all gods need) were torn apart by the bad Wens. WWX also gives the robe to a'Yuan iirc. Read it on ao3, might've been a oneshot. @yetusagi

FOUND? Three Worlds, One Life by limedumplr (T, 9k, WangXian, Angels & Demons, Heaven & Hell, fairytale AU, Eternal Love Spinoff, Pining, happy ending I promise, Arranged Marriage, Forced Marriage)

12. Hi! I’m looking for a fic where the jiang and wwx test their blood relation (not modern btw). I remember the rumor about sect leader jiang and wwx being father-son are just really just rumors because it shows that they are not related. However, when they test out madam yu and wwx blood, apparently they are related to each other. It turns out CSR’s parent is a sibling of Madam Yu’s parent (I dunno if they are really siblings but I know they a family) making it CSR related to Madam Yu (counsin ig)

Hi! I’m the #12 requester in the recent fic finder. Thank you but unfortunately it is not the one I’m looking for. I think the revelation of the blood related thing happened early chapter because as much as I can remember, madam yu treats wwx better after knowing they are related. She actually treats him as her nephew.

NOT FOUND! All Things Belong by kuroi_atropos (M, 64k, WIP, WRH & WWX, WangXian, WWX is a Wēn, Abuse, Whipping, Manipulations, Warning: WRH, Smart WWX, Possessive Behavior, Warning: JGS, Implied/Referenced Rape/Non-con, Past Rape/Non-con) it turns out in the later chapter that wwx is somehow related tu mdm yu via his grandmother (who was cssr's mother).

13. Hello, first I want to thank you for your service! I am looking for a fic where there's a scene where Lan Xichen sets up a dinner date to introduce Lan Wangji to his boyfriend Nie Mingjue. However, Nie Huaisang came to the restaurant because he lost his apartment keys and he was looking for his brother for help. NHS brought his bestie Wei Wuxian with him so LWJ mistook WWX as LXC's boyfriend. @ksoostrauma

14. just wanted to find a specific fic. It is one where wangxian time travel, and everyone is suspicious of them in the sunshot campaign. Jin guangshan suggests using a magic ball to spy on them, but it turns out they just end up combing each other's hair of something intimate but not shameless?

FOUND? lan xichen is very concerned (and confused) by theninjacat (T, 3k, WangXian, POV Outsider, Time Travel, Canon Divergence, Sunshot Campaign) I just read it, and the hair brushing spying thing was fresh on my mind and in my AO3 history!

~*~

15. Hi! Please help. I lost some of the fics I was reading, and cannot remember where I first saw them (was using incognito at work, but there was an update and pcs got restarted). It's about the cultivation world punishing ppl, especially Wens, at the BM. During war, they see only Yiling is not attacked, and the guardian, who wears a mask and talks through WQ, accepts to help them if he gets married to a clan heir, as a warranty they won't turn on him. There's a scene where an assasain gets to the camp and is about to kill JYL, but Yllz saves her. Do you know it? @allthoselhb

FOUND? Tumblr post by ShanaStoryteller I think this is 15

15 sounds very familiar but I can't find the fic. If it helps, I think it's the one where YLLZ is walking around with a swirling mask of resentful energy all the time and never speaks, and Wen Qing is his voice. Everyone thinks WWX is dead

For 15, I don't THINK it's these, but have similar elements, so maybe, or at least interesting? I forget the name, but there's one fic where wwx and lz never met before the war, and wwx and the lans insist on an arranged marriage between him and a main clan member after the war (they live on burial mounds, not quite a sect kinda big household vibes) to kinda legitimize themselves to protect their people, thinking anyone sent by the clans to the "evil" yllz must be abused/not valued, so they'd actually be saving someone from a bad situation and into a married in name only respected guest situation. Only they get lz instead. Lxc is very worried for awhile thinking lz must be getting abused meanwhile yllz is a masked but perfect gentleman who proves to be a kind dedicated family leader/lord of the area and lz becomes sympathetic/supportive and ends up falling HARD for him and adores ayuan

there's also another one. Idk about a mask, but in it I think jgs? Tricks both wwx (backed by the bm wens) and the lans into thinking that each other are insisting on some sort of forced political marriage with each other, with the Jin being a "neutral party mediators" when actually the Jin are threatening and pressuring both sides into it/lying. Wwx lz and Co find out when they meet for first time on Jin grounds and unite against the jin.

there's also another fic featuring masks, where the yllz is more spooky unknown who always shows up wearing a full face? Silver mask, with the designs changing every now and then. You later find out that the identity of yllz is being shared between wwx, the wen siblings, and I think mxy? And this is during sunshot campaign after the sects asked for their help (tho they might of also offered it as a strategic move for themselves?)

~*~

16. ive been looking for a fic where for some reason wwx stays with the nie after the ssc. nmj threatens to cut off wwx's tongue if he does demonic cultivation but wwx just depresses his life away instead. jgy blocks letters from everyone so hes really isolated. eventually nhs brings him out of his shell and hes eventually allowed outside his rooms. Later, lxc comes to play clarity/rest, and in the training grounds wwx has a panic attack after being accused of cursing jyl and her second pregnancy whoch he hadnt even known about. Now that i think about it, it probably actually takes place after qiongqi pass.

follow up for the imprisoned in the nie fic, im fairly sure that in the summary, nhs is like "you used to be so confident and happy..."

FOUND! Always walked a very thin line by tucuxi (T, 22k, WangXian)

17. Hi, can you help me find these fics? I've been going crazy! They were on ao3; I hope they haven't been deleted!

A) I think wwx was a ghost, & found himself at the Cloud Recesses in the aftermath of lwj's punishment. Lwj was in bad condition and almost died (a couple of times?) Eventually there was some sort of ritual to bring wwx back into a physical body, & he was in the adjoining room bc he was also very weak. (NB: this is not the fic where wwx is actually astral projecting from Baoshan Sanren's mountain, it's a different one).

B) Lwj stayed at the Burial Mounds, & his health was very poor, he kept getting very sick quite often. At one point there was an epidemic in Yiling; some of the Wens died, and then they went to go help in the town bc of their medical knowledge. Lwj had to stay separate bc of his fragile health; he had to tend the fields alone and he couldn't attend the funerals.

Hi, I messaged recently for help finding 2 fics, so naturally I finally find one of them again not 24 hours later 🙈 The one with Lan Zhan in poor health at the Burial Mounds/the epidemic situation is Over the Rotted Bridge by vailkagami! I can't believe I forgot about the necromancy or Lan Zhan being mute!! I would still love your assistance with finding the other one 🙏🙏 Thank you!

19. Hello! For the next fic finder, can you help find this fic? It's a sickly WWX because of his live in the street before. I dont remember much but there was a horse riding lesson, he learn about strategy, and when he make a journey alone to make his sword. In his journey he met with imperial soldiers that patroled around capital and befriend them. I think he calmed a resentful mother cat too i think. It's a WIP story. I read that recently in this year but i think it was a fic from around 2019-2020? Thank you @idontknowwhattowriteforusername

Sano x Angelica - The beginning Chapter 1

The beginning

Chapter 1

The clock struck 8. It was time. Angelica stood straight, with faded brownish-pink hair reaching to her knees, clouded green eyes, and a few stray beauty marks pricked her skin, in a uniform drenched in black, despite her petite body,  made her look more dignified and proper, she held her chin high and a briefcase by her side. She was the daughter of Gabriel Vanhelsing, the multi-billionaire demon hunter, who was the current head of the Vanhelsing clan; he was one of the thousands before him, holder of the title “Gabriel,” given by God himself. Angelica had every right to hold her head high, she was practical royalty. 

There, who cautiously stepped into the lobby of the luxurious Helsing Plaza, were the ambassadors of The Demon Integration Alliance, otherwise known as the D.I.A., their leader, Joseph F. Lee led from the front and upon greeting the young heiress, he bowed, took her gloved hand, and kissed an emerald green ring that glittered on her pointer finger.

“It is an honor to meet you, Ms. Van Helsing.”

Angelica’s eyes idly remained at the top of his head, then flicked up to stare daggers into the five wary members behind him, those eyes, that face, the epitome of beauty, as she was known for across the country. She studied in uneasy silence, like she was burning their faces into her head. Perhaps to hunt them later. Then she smiled.

“...Likewise, Sir. Lee, but please, call me Angelica.”

“Yes, yes of course, Angelica…”

He seemed surprised, but did his best to keep it from showing.

“Ah…allow me to introduce our head ambassadors. They are the most prevalent members, who’ve done much for our cause.”

“I’m sure.”

Angelica nodded, and signaled with her hand, urging him for introductions. A red headed woman spoke up first, holding her hand out to shake Angelica’s.

“My name is Karina. Karina Grey.”

Angelica took her hand in hers. 

“A pleasure.”

She stated softly. 

“Seungbin Choi.”

“Segun Barlow.”

Their introductions were short, all except for the last one. He patted the man’s shoulder affirmatively and smiled,

“This. This is Dr. Kojima. One of my leads, his healthcare is infamous, I’m sure you already know, progressing research by decades, and very passionate about the integration movement.”

Angelica looked up, he was a big man, standing tall at at least six-foot-five. His hair, slicked back, was black, darker than her uniform, he wore blue square lenses, behind them were his heterochromatic blue and gray eyes, and even with the pinkish scar carved across his olive toned face, he was deathly handsome. His aura itself was intimidating, but she knew him, he was the adoptive son of Cain Zeitgeist, yes, she was all too familiar. 

“Sano Kojima.”

His deep droll sounded, 

“Pleased to be your acquaintance. Ms. Angelica.”

“You must be proud of your accomplishments, their quite impressive,”

She followed with a small chuckle, and Sano nodded.

“Of course.”

As her gaze lingered across each one of them, she caught wind of the tension painted on their faces. There was no mistaking it, their defenses were up, and they were ready to pounce. The collective few noticed the plaza’s lifelessness, the absence of human life. All but Angelica.

“I won’t strike if you don’t.”

Her voice broke through the thick air, and she pushed her glasses further up the bridge of her small nose. The glint of light blocking the sight of her eyes.

“It’s only a precaution. I pray you understand. Do not worry. You are protected here. As we agreed upon.”

Angelica spun on her heel and began to stride towards the elevator.

“Well, We shouldn’t stall any further. My father is growing impatient.”

They reluctantly followed suit, entering the elevator with her, as she hit the button for the 100th floor. The silence felt so loud, but as soon as they landed on the 100th floor and the elevators opened she spoke again,

“Follow me.”

She led them down a corridor, and to two giant double doors, where they slowly creaked open. Inside was a large wooden table, a hanging glass chandelier, and windows overlooking New York City as the sun began to set.

“Father.”

Angelica bowed her head, and walked to sit beside him at the long meeting table. There were only a few attendants, one who took Angelica’s coat, one attempting to take care of the ambassadors and another who set refreshments down. Gabriel stood up.

“Welcome to our home.”

He smiled, but the sunset shining through the big glass windows blocked out his face.

“You have met my beautiful daughter already, yes? These are my sons, Micahelis and Ezekiel.”

Angelica watched from her seat as they exchanged pleasantries, greetings and small conversation. Soon after, they took their designated spots, Gabriel sat down and hummed.

“Where do we start…hmm? How about your cause? What is it exactly that you want?”

He lit a cigar and leaned forward, resting a hand near his lips.

“Well. Mr. Van Helsing.”

“Gabriel.”

“Ah-Gabriel. Our main goal is to push for a complete integration of the demon race, by the end of the year.”

“Five months. How bold.”

“Yes, but surely you can see-”

“Why do you need us?”

Angelica lowered her head.

“Our family is quite busy.”

 “ The safety of millions of human lives weighs on our shoulders. This...would only serve to burden us further.”

“Mr.Gabriel. We are well aware. Which is why I have sought your family out. We need your support, to bring an end to demon hunting. Not only protect the lives of humans, but demons too. Surely you know the struggle we face with the underground, people who are trying to discern our organization's efforts.”

Sano watched as the smaller of the four looked to the side, as her brothers and father shared stern glances.

“Demons. Demons who discern your efforts. But Why should we help you? You are not people, you have no humanity, you are not God’s creations.”

“With all due respect, Dr. Kojima was born between a human and a naga, so does he retain only half of his humanity? Only half you should protect? There are more like him.”

Gabriel quickly countered him.

“I know what he is. I know who his grandfather is too. Raised by that man, I can only imagine what has influenced him.”

Sano scowled, then scoffed.

“Is that so?”

Sano spoke lowly, 

“What your… “Hunters” do, how is that any different then brutal genocide?”

“Genocide of a race that has threatened the livihoods of good people…and what good are you? Who is born of sin?”

“This is a peace meeting, we don’t need to throw unnecessary slander.”

Karina interjected, she crossed her arms as she frowned, feeling offended by his words.

“I concur.”

Muttered the now stoic Segun. That helped nothing, however, words began to be thrown back and forth. Angelica seemed in a daze, looking down at her now cold tea. As the bickering amongst those at the table began to rise. Both parties talking over one another, even her brothers throwing shots. A grimace arose on her face as she felt overwhelmed by the constant dispute. Her fist hit the table, silencing the parties, signaling her father. She slowly signed with her hands.

“Father.”

She locked eyes with Mr.Lee, and for a split second, Sano.

“You are not listening. Father. Hear them out. I believe you are looking over a valuable possibility.”

Her eye contact switched back to her father, as he seemed to suddenly understand her position.

“Speak, Annie.”

“I personally, do not see the issue with bringing upon the end of demon hunting. It has always been an exhaustion of our resources, and overwhelming for our forces.”

She paused.

“That does not mean I wish to end it completely. Rather, I think it's time we began to shift our focus onto demons who pose immediate threats to the well-being of the people and demons themselves. It has been impossible to keep the underground contained and subdued with the amount of concern we place on demons and devils as a whole. It's festering. If we do nothing about it now, it will be a bigger problem in the future.”

Gabriel thought for a moment, and before he could speak Micahelis agreed,

“She is correct. Father. I believe it to be a better course of action.”

“We can change the name too.”

Ezekiel mumbled.

“Well…I don't see why not.”

Gabriel reluctantly voiced.

“Then, I also think it will support our family. Not only will the human race back the C.C.E, but the demon race too. It could prove to be beneficial later on. Nothing is wrong with good press.”

Angelica locked her fingers, and rested her chin on her hands.

“And one more thing…”

Angelica hummed.

“perhaps…we can fix a marriage proposal. A form of union. And a symbol to both kinds of unity, I think it would make a pretty good covenant.”

There was a hush stillness in the room, as they anxiously awaited Mr. Gabriel and his response. The D.I.A. would not hesitate to accept such a term, it benefited them too much to refuse. He was a little stunned, but realization settled in as he understood just exactly what his daughter was inferring. An arranged marriage, Gabriel had been searching for a suitable partner for her all this time, and there it was, his golden ticket. Angelica, marrying one of the ambassadors, easier to control, meant access to confidential information, and she could be his eyes. Although, he didn’t know who he would choose, it would be one of six present in the room. 

“Ambassador Lee, do you agree with such terms?”

Gabriel cocked his head, dabbing his cigar out in a tin tray. While Joseph Lee looked for approval, he quickly spoke.

“Yes. We can make something work.”

Gabriel chuckled, a foreboding, sinister chuckle. 

“Then let’s talk details.”

CC!NextGen

You said Unicorn kid, I HAVE A UNICORN KID, LET ME SHARE HER!!!!

Alice Quinn

Age: 15

Hair: White-Gold

Eyes: Solid Black

Height: 6'9" (at the moment)

Personality: Deadpan, stoic, calm. Seems completely relaxed, aloof, almost ethereal at all times. Actually a foul-mouthed snarker, who likes to play on people’s perception of the unicorn kid as sweet and innocent, so they don’t see the sucker punch coming. Has issues with people who don’t take their health seriously, and will go off if you try to do something while you are injured or sick. Actually great with kids, has a good bedside manner “But you shits rarely ever DESERVE IT, GET BACK IN BED, YOUR FUCKING LEG IS BROKEN!”

Hero Name: Alicorn (note: I know Alicorn now means a winged unicorn, but originally, “alicorn” was the name they gave powdered unicorn horn, the stuff that was supposed to be a miracle cure, get rid of poisons and shit)

Quirk: Unicorn (satyr version) - User has physiology similar to a Unicorn, cloven hoof feet, long tail with a tuft at the end. fingers Have last digit end in a claw, or keratin-like growth similar to a claw (weird note, but look at Alastor’s hands from Hazbin Hotel). Has a single spiral horn in the middle of the forehead. Face and ears are somewhat goat/deer like. Eyes large and solid black, cannot see the pupils, unless she is in a state of high and intense emotion, when the pupils will glow white, pupils are slit like a goats, horizontal. Has very long eyelashes. Body covered in short “fur”, which is longer around the ankles. User may or may not have wings.

User has healing/purification abilities. Horn glows when using these abilities. Purification abilities manifest as a silver cloud of sparkly dust, healing as a golden glow. Healing works by granting energy to cells in the body, encouraging them to heal. User has massive stores of energy with which to heal others, but said stores can be depleted. Purification works more generally, clearing the air or area filled with the silver “dust” of impurities. Can be used to fairly easily get rid of poisons or venoms. Can be used to get rid of viruses or infections, but it would take a lot of training.

Backstory: Ok, so, for me, I made up this whole story about how there’s this group that controls a lot of medical care for Japan in the MHAverse (in Japan, the Tenshi Group, internationally the Abbotts Angels) who are all a family of basically Angel Quirks. They have wings, horns that glow and look like halos, and healing abilities. And there’d be two factions of this family, one which was all about medical research and healing people, while the other was big on capitalism, and made people pay them big money to “heal” all sorts of things, like terminal diseases (which they can’t really do???). And faction two would try to frame it as “What if people take advantage of us?? We’re only thinking of the family!!!” which like, ok, being taken advantage of is a legit concern, but bitch, you are scamming people and charging stupid amounts of money to the poor, You are basically the American Healthcare System. And then this second faction would be all into family lineage and “purity” - like yeah, they’re mutation types, but the RIGHT KIND of mutation types, yeah? So they get real mad when one of their “heirs” or whatever has a fling with a random hero from the USA, the “Jersey Devil”, a guy with a “demonic” Quirk (goat-looking, ram horns, bat wings) and gets pregnant, and has a Unicorn looking kid. Now either A) Momma manages to hide the pregnancy enough, and put the kid up for adoption, or B), has the kid, and the family kind of raise her through proxy by a series of nannies, cause god FORBID anyone find out their line birthed THIS, but also they are pretty sure she’s going to have a healing Quirk, and THAT has to stay in the family.

(Do with this what you will)

I am totally on board with Pony/Kinoko. Koda … hmmmm (actually, I just remembered, Koda has a baby sister.) Ok give Koda a gentle giant husband, a big big man. A teddy bear grizzly. Huge man. Fluffy man. Also doesn’t talk much. He and Shoji are fighting for “Best Hugs”. He and Koda met … third year? Third year UA, he’s a transfer. They have … . give me a minute … 4 kids. They adopted a group of siblings that would have been separated if they didn’t step in. All of their kids are younger than most of the others - like, 4, 6, 7, 9 - so they aren’t at UA.

How’s that sound?

-

Honestly my plan for the unicorn baby was 100% ‘looks like an anthro Lady Amalthea but can and will say ‘fuck’.’

I think I can let you keep that backstory because as much as I love the drama I’m thinking this one’s simple. However that’s still fun because honestly I should swing over to the healer Quirks because YEAH those are highly wanted and it’s a miracle they’re not kidnapped more often.

As for Koda I’m loving the vibes but also again on the like. I feel like this should be hammered out more in the future. But also I /do/ agree that obvs not everyone is gonna meet their future spouse first day of high school so having him meet someone later works for me

AI speeds up exam analysis at São Paulo public hospital

Health unit adopts system for chest X-rays, cutting result wait time from one hour to five minutes

Doctors at São Paulo's Hospital do Servidor Público Estadual (HSPE) have gained a powerful ally with deep knowledge, keen vision, and speed in analyzing chest X-rays. Thanks to a collaboration with the Foundation for Research and Study of Diagnostic Imaging (Fidi), an artificial intelligence system has been integrated into the hospital's X-ray equipment. According to hospital management, HSPE is the first public health unit in Brazil to utilize this type of tool.

Fidi, a philanthropic healthcare organization established 38 years ago by medical professors, already partners with HSPE under a R$4 million monthly contract for various imaging services. The inclusion of AI in the analysis within the State Civil Servant Medical Assistance Institute (Iamspe) network did not alter the contract's value.

The foundation secured the AI license from German company Oxipit, which specializes in medical technology and trained the algorithm that performs mathematical image analysis. The system operates through Oxipit's cloud in Brazil.

With AI implementation, the turnaround time for chest X-ray results decreased by 91.7%, from one hour to five minutes. The tool examines the entire thoracic cavity, including lungs, heart, and bones, identifying 75 potential findings such as changes in the aorta and heart. "The project assists doctors who are separated from patients by a 50-centimeter lead wall," explains Osvaldo Landi Júnior, Fidi's medical innovation and data manager.

Aug. 15 (UPI) -- The Arizona Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that the term "unborn human being" can be used on a voter guide providing information about a ballot measure to constitutionalize the right to an abortion.

The court overruled the decision of a Maricopa County judge, ruling the phrase "unborn human being" meets the legal standard to be used on the pamphlet.

The Arizona Legislative Council drafts and approves the language used in this pamphlet. The joint committee is meant to draft the language of bills and perform research in a nonpartisan way. Ahead of elections it dictates the language that will appear in a pamphlet for voters to help them better understand the ballot initiatives that will be before them in November.

The council adopted the term "unborn human being" to be included in the pamphlet to inform voters about Proposition 139. The term, and terms like it, are typically used by organizations opposed to abortion access. The medically recognized term during the gestational stage is fetus.

Proposition 139 is an amendment that would guarantee the right to seek an abortion up to fetal viability, around 23 to 24 weeks of gestation. This was the standard in Arizona before the Dobbs decision in 2022.

State Rep. Nancy Gutierrez is one of the six Democrats on the council, along with eight Republicans. She and other Democrats argued that the term approved by their Republican counterparts is "inflammatory" and not neutral.

Republicans argued that "fetus" is not a specific enough term.

"Our voices are not heard often in committee," Gutierrez told UPI. "They overruled us like they did every single point on the ballot measures that day."

Dawn Penich, communications director for Arizona for Abortion Access, told UPI using the term "unborn human being" is an attempt to bias voters against the amendment.

"They have every right to do that in their own mailers and campaign commercials," she said. "They cannot do that in what is supposed to be an objective and impartial document."

The office of Secretary of State Adrian Fontes reported Monday that the Arizona Abortion Access Act petition cleared the required 383,923 valid signatures to put Proposition 139 before voters. It did so with 577,971 signatures.

Arizona Right to Life, a group opposing the measure, has taken its challenge to the Supreme Court.

Arizona Right to Life has been running a "Decline to Sign" campaign opposite the petition. Following that failed attempt to halt the constitutional amendment, it is arguing that the petition was "misleading."

"Their faulty abortion distortion petition is misleading," Jill Norgaard, board member for Arizona Right to Life, said in a statement. "Austin Yost, AAA attorney stated in Superior Court that the Initiative has 'unrestricted abortion up to and after fetal viability' -- a statement clouded in the language of the Initiative."

Norgaard did not respond to requests for an interview.

The lawsuit, filed against Fontes and Arizona for Abortion Access -- the group that headed the petition effort -- comes with a request for an expedited decision. It is pushing for a decision to come down before the ballot printing deadline on Aug. 22.

Despite the challenge, proponents for the amendment are confident it will be on the ballot and it will pass.

"We feel really confident that the same enthusiasm that got us to that historic number of signatures is going to show up on election day," Penich said.

The U.S. Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe vs. Wade put Arizona and several other states at the center of what Penich describes as a "judicial whiplash." Healthcare providers and women seeking reproductive care have been caught in it through a sometimes quickly changing legal landscape.

Arizona adopted a 15-week abortion ban and for a time took up a Civil War-era ban on nearly all abortions. Gov. Katie Hobbs signed legislation to repeal the 1864 law adopted by the state supreme court.

The back-and-forth has caused some pregnant women to struggle finding appropriate prenatal care as clinics struggle to keep up, Penich said.

"We want to make sure we get out of this political flip-flopping," Penich said. "People are tired of it."

The Future of ERP Software in India:  Trends to Watch in 2024

As India continues to solidify its position as a global economic powerhouse, the demand for sophisticated Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solutions has never been higher.  ERP software companies in India are at the forefront of this transformation, driving innovation and efficiency across various industries.  As we look ahead to 2024, several key trends are shaping the future of ERP software in India.  This blog delves into these trends, offering insights into how ERP software providers in India are gearing up to meet the evolving needs of businesses.

1.  Increased Adoption of Cloud-Based ERP Solutions

One of the most significant trends in the ERP landscape is the shift towards cloud-based solutions.  ERP software companies in India are increasingly offering cloud-based ERP systems to meet the growing demand for flexibility, scalability, and cost-efficiency.  Cloud ERP solutions eliminate the need for extensive on-premises infrastructure, allowing businesses to reduce capital expenditure and streamline operations.

Cloud-based ERP systems also facilitate real-time data access and collaboration, enabling businesses to make informed decisions quickly.  This trend is particularly beneficial for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that require affordable and scalable ERP solutions to compete effectively in the market.

2.  Integration of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are revolutionizing the ERP landscape.  ERP software providers in India are integrating AI and ML technologies to enhance the capabilities of their solutions.  These technologies enable predictive analytics, automate routine tasks, and provide intelligent insights, helping businesses to optimize their operations.

For instance, AI-powered ERP systems can forecast demand, manage inventory levels, and predict maintenance needs, significantly improving efficiency and reducing costs.  As AI and ML technologies continue to evolve, their integration into ERP systems will become more sophisticated, offering even greater value to businesses.

3.  Focus on Industry-Specific ERP Solutions

ERP software companies in India are increasingly developing industry-specific ERP solutions to cater to the unique needs of different sectors.  Whether it is manufacturing, retail, healthcare, or finance, each industry has distinct requirements that generic ERP systems might not fully address.  Industry-specific ERP solutions offer tailored functionalities and workflows, ensuring better alignment with business processes.

For example, a manufacturing ERP system might include features for production planning, quality control, and supply chain management, while a retail ERP system could focus on inventory management, point of sale (POS) integration, and customer relationship management (CRM).  This trend towards specialization ensures that businesses can leverage ERP systems that truly support their operational needs.

4.  Enhanced Mobile Accessibility

With the proliferation of smartphones and mobile devices, the need for mobile-friendly ERP solutions is growing.  ERP software providers in India are developing mobile applications that allow users to access critical business information on the go.  Mobile ERP solutions enable employees to perform tasks such as inventory checks, sales order processing, and expense reporting from their smartphones or tablets.

This trend not only improves accessibility but also enhances productivity by enabling employees to work remotely and make decisions in real-time.  As mobile technology continues to advance, the functionality and user experience of mobile ERP applications will improve, making them an indispensable tool for modern businesses.

Moreover, with the implementation of regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and India’s Personal Data Protection Bill, compliance is a critical concern for businesses.  ERP software providers are ensuring that their systems comply with these regulations, helping businesses avoid legal penalties and build trust with their customers.

6.  Rise of Hybrid ERP Solutions

While cloud-based ERP systems offer numerous advantages, some businesses prefer on-premises solutions due to specific regulatory or operational requirements.  To cater to these diverse needs, ERP software companies in India are offering hybrid ERP solutions that combine the benefits of both cloud and on-premises systems.

Hybrid ERP solutions provide the flexibility of cloud-based systems while allowing businesses to maintain critical applications on-premises.  This approach offers a balanced solution, enabling businesses to optimize their IT infrastructure based on their unique needs and preferences.

7.  Adoption of Advanced Analytics and Business Intelligence

Data is the new currency in today’s business environment, and the ability to harness and analyze data is a key competitive advantage.  ERP software providers in India are integrating advanced analytics and business intelligence (BI) tools into their systems.  These tools enable businesses to gain deep insights into their operations, identify trends, and make data-driven decisions.

Advanced analytics and BI tools can analyze large volumes of data from various sources, providing comprehensive reports and dashboards.  This helps businesses to monitor performance, identify inefficiencies, and uncover new opportunities for growth.

8.  Greater Focus on User Experience and Interface Design

The user experience (UX) and interface design of ERP systems are critical to their adoption and effectiveness.  ERP software companies in India are placing a greater emphasis on developing intuitive and user-friendly interfaces.  This trend is driven by the need to ensure that ERP systems are accessible and easy to use for all employees, regardless of their technical expertise.

Modern ERP systems feature clean, responsive interfaces with customizable dashboards and navigation options.  This focus on UX design helps to improve user satisfaction, reduce training time, and increase overall productivity.

Navigating Market Volatility: Strategies for Success in Uncertain Times

Introduction:

In the tumultuous world of the stock market, where the only constant is change, navigating through periods of volatility is a skill every investor should hone. The ability to not only weather the storm but to thrive amidst uncertainty can define an investor's success. In this blog post, we'll delve into effective strategies to navigate market volatility, offering insights for both seasoned investors and those just starting their journey into the financial markets.

Understanding Market Volatility:

Market volatility is the ebb and flow of prices in the financial markets. It is driven by a myriad of factors, including economic indicators, geopolitical events, and market sentiment. To navigate through these turbulent times, investors must first understand the root causes of volatility. Exploring historical instances of volatility, such as the 2008 financial crisis or the dot-com bubble, provides valuable lessons on the impact of these events on the market.

Risk Management Techniques:

One of the cornerstones of successful investing in volatile markets is effective risk management. Diversification, the practice of spreading investments across different assets, can mitigate risks and protect your portfolio from sharp declines in any one sector. Additionally, employing stop-loss orders, predetermined sell orders triggered when a security reaches a specified price, can limit potential losses and preserve capital.

Investing vs. Trading:

Investors face the choice of adopting a long-term investment strategy or engaging in short-term trading to capitalize on market fluctuations. Aligning your approach with your financial goals and risk tolerance is crucial. Long-term investors often weather short-term volatility with the understanding that markets tend to trend upward over time. On the other hand, traders seek to profit from short-term price movements, requiring a different set of skills and strategies.

Opportunities Amidst Chaos:

While market volatility poses risks, it also presents opportunities for astute investors. Certain sectors or industries may perform well during turbulent times, such as healthcare or technology. Contrarian investing, the strategy of going against prevailing market sentiment, can lead to identifying undervalued opportunities in the midst of chaos. Additionally, distressed assets, those whose value has fallen significantly, may present profitable opportunities for those willing to take calculated risks.

Market Analysis Tools:

Investors have an array of tools at their disposal to analyze market conditions. Technical analysis involves studying price charts and indicators, while fundamental analysis assesses a company's financial health. Embracing these tools empowers investors to make informed decisions based on data rather than emotions. The integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning further enhances the precision and efficiency of market analysis.

Psychology of Trading:

Understanding the psychological aspects of trading is crucial during volatile times. Behavioral biases, such as fear and greed, can cloud judgment and lead to irrational decision-making. Maintaining emotional discipline and making rational decisions based on a well-thought-out strategy is paramount. Learning from the experiences of successful investors who have mastered the psychological aspects of trading can provide valuable insights.

Global Events and Market Impact:

Global events, from elections to economic crises and pandemics, can significantly impact the stock market. Staying informed about unfolding events and understanding their potential impact on the market allows investors to adapt their strategies accordingly. Historical examples, such as the market reactions to the Brexit vote or the COVID-19 pandemic, highlight the importance of being nimble and proactive in response to global events.

Case Studies:

Real-life case studies of investors or traders who navigated volatile markets successfully provide practical insights. Examining their strategies, challenges faced, and lessons learned offers a roadmap for others to follow. These case studies serve as valuable examples of adaptability, resilience, and strategic thinking during uncertain market conditions.

Conclusion:

In the ever-evolving landscape of the stock market, being well-prepared for volatility is a prerequisite for success. By understanding the causes of market fluctuations, employing effective risk management, and staying informed through market analysis tools and global events, investors can position themselves not just to survive but to thrive. Successful investing is a journey that requires continuous learning, adaptability, and the ability to seize opportunities amid the ever-changing market dynamics.
