Fabian Theis Featured in FOCUS Online on AI in Healthcare
Using AI to Transform Diagnosis and Treatment
MCML PI Fabian Theis is featured in a recent FOCUS Online article exploring how artificial intelligence could transform healthcare. In an interview at DLD 2026 in Munich, Theis discusses the potential of AI to make the diagnosis and treatment of diseases more affordable, accessible, and personalized.
Theis presents the vision of a “Virtual Human”, AI models that represent different scales of human biology, from molecules and cells to organs and the entire human body. He also discusses practical applications of AI in medical imaging and how language models could help interpret individual health data, while emphasizing that AI should support rather than replace physicians.
