Hey email marketers - can we quit it with the "OOOPS - We accidentally made a mistake in the last email and now we're following up with another message in your inbox a few minutes later"-style messages? Yes I know it gets higher open rates. It's also totally transparent that it's a ruse.

SO many new advances in #LinkedInAds retargeting! Check out all the tips and strategies you'll ever want in my conversation with Michael (Mike) Stelzner on the Social Media Marketing podcast!

Well, there is now a potato chip that tastes like a grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup. Doesn't that remind you of the gum in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory that turned Violet into a giant blueberry?!?! You're welcome for this pointless LinkedIn post. PS it's Shay ☀️ Rowbottom 's 27th birthday so don't forget to wish her some amazingness for the years ahead! Popping a drink in your honor back in your home state for ya 😉 May all your wishes come true! #ChantelShares …see more

Have you seen any brand blunders or influencer crumbles during this crisis, caused by insensitivities or a lack of compassion? If YES, what was the situation? Will you continue to follow them and choose their services? OR Have they lost your business? If NO, do you encourage more BOLD advocacy and taking sides? Let me know in the comments as I track and monitor the polls results for crisis communication feedback. BONUS if you can share your favorite successfully sensitive campaigns. I personally love how Progressive has performed... #branding #crisismanagement #publicrelations …see more

This weekend, may you MAKE time to switch from fight-or-flight mode to rest-and-recovery. You already have plenty of time, you just have to PRIORITIZE YOUR HEALTH. Did you know that your brain literally washes itself during deep sleep? Our brain is actually at its most active when you sleep (not just controlling body functions) sorting, processing, and sending signals around our body. Cortisol levels lower and our sympathetic nervous system relaxes, which lowers blood pressure. A number of hormones get to work, including growth hormones, which help us repair and, yes, grow. Every individual cell in our body gets a once-over. Our immune system is kept busy at REST, fighting inflammation, infection, and trauma with the release of protein cytokines. SO REST UP! See you Monday! …see more

Making investment calls are SO hard in the early stages of the company. Even sophisticated investors and VCs can repeatedly miss great opportunities.

Looking forward to your thoughts on Digital Doorway in Healthcare. #healthcareinnovation #digitalcare #digitaldoorway

Let me share with you a personal story with the FDA . Our online database with The Medical Futurist Institute on artificial intelligence-based FDA-approved medical devices and algorithms was published and peer-reviewed on Nature’s digital health journal, npj Digital Medicine. I’ve been trying to get it accepted by the FDA, offering it to them for free. After numerous emails and using my best connections, I managed to pitch this to the FDA Digital Health Division. Their answer was that they’re not interested in the database, but are happy to connect me with an A.I consortium. My only question remains: if they don’t want our Nature-published, peer-reviewed database, where is THEIR database on A.I.-based, FDA approved medical technologies? WHERE? #fda #themedicalfuturist #digitalhealth #future #healthcare #medicine #technology #AI #artificialintelligence #deeplearning #machinelearning …see more

It was great to be part of the reshaping Australia dialogues series! The Australian Financial Review and Microsoft Australia invited me to give a keynote about the future of healthcare and I did last night at 2 am. The next keynote will be given by Satya Nadella , Microsoft CEO so I'm in good company. :) The keynote in the video starts at 3:20 and the Q&A starts at 25:20. My major message was this: "The pandemic has showed that the world needs heroes. And maybe this is time for you to become the one who saves healthcare." Also, that is the first time I was called a "techno activist who hacks his medical data to live longer". I laughed so hard. This is me being an empowered patient trying to do whatever I can to at least have a chance for a longer and healthier life. #themedicalfuturist #digitalhealth #future #healthcare #speaker #keynote …see more

In recent days, I've been analyzing how the maker community and innovatos got together worldwide to fight the supply chain issues medical rofessionals face during COVID-19. Now I just came across the "Coronavirus Innovation Map", a global directory with hundreds of innovations and solutions that help people cope and adapt to life amid the Covid-19 pandemic, and to connect innovators. It was initiated by StartupBlink, a global startup ecosystem map and research center. Check it out and submit your findings. #themedicalfuturist #digitalhealth #future #healthcare #medicine #technology #fromchancetochoice #COVID19 #COVID_19 #coronavirus …see more

We had a productive year at The Medical Futurist Institute in 2019. As the institute is still young, we focus on publishing original studies and a few opinion papers that describe our take on the future of digital health. Here are a few examples: The Real Era of the Art of Medicine Begins with Artificial Intelligence (JMIR) https://lnkd.in/gDJepMH Data annotators are the unsung heroes of medicine’s artificial intelligence revolution (The Journal of Medical Artificial Intelligence) https://lnkd.in/gsiYAWs Opinion leader empowered patients about the era of digital health: a qualitative study (BMJ Open) https://lnkd.in/gxcEAXF The Rise of the Empowered Physician in the Digital Health Era: Viewpoint (JMIR) https://lnkd.in/gzwVi3a #themedicalfuturist #digitalhealth #future #healthcare #medicine #technology #TMFI #research #artificialintelligence #ai #dataannotators #epatient #patientempowerment …see more

Dante Labs offered me a whole genome sequencing service and analysis and I'll use this opportunity to discuss what patients can expect from genome sequencing and what it can deliver. This is going to be a long process describing hard topics but it's going to be worth it.  The sampling is pretty simple, I provide saliva, mix it with a special solution that preserves my DNA until it reaches the lab and I'll get the results in a few weeks. Would you do sequence your full genome to learn more about the future of your health?  #fromchancetochoice #digitalhealth #genomics #DTC #health #future …see more

Wondering about what the Super Bowl tells us so far about investing? Here's a thought. The barbell construct can be powerfully competitive: By combining young players with older ones imported from other teams, the Bucs show that 1+1 can be a lot more than 2. As for the Chiefs, their investment-related challenge is to focus on their edge and resist the inclination to venture far from it. #investing #investors #superbowl #bucs #chiefs National Football League (NFL) …see more
