April 29 - “Rushing Headlong: Health IT's Legacy and the Road to Responsible AI" with S. Yin Ho, MD, MBA '00
7:00 PM - 8:00 PM Wednesday, 29 April, 2026 (Timezone: Eastern)
S. Yin Ho, MD, MBA, health technology CEO and advocate for responsible AI integration in healthcare will discuss the pivotal intersection between generative AI technology, patient care and medical ethics.
In Rushing Headlong: Health IT’s Legacy and The Road to Responsible AI, Dr. S. Yin Ho, MD, MBA '00, focuses on the history of Health IT and the lessons we should consider as we embark on this uncharted course of AI development. Dr. Ho traces the journey from early health IT hopes to the rise of generative AI in medicine. Blending personal stories with deep industry experience, she shows how both public and private leaders have missed chances to fix disjointed systems. Candid about the harm done by regulatory and financial incentives and obstacles, Dr. Ho explains how generative AI could finally unlock real progress, if all healthcare stakeholders act with intention, collaboration and courage

A visionary executive in the Health IT and clinical research space, Dr. Ho has been founding, building, and leading Health IT companies and initiatives for over 25 years. Most recently, Dr. Ho was the interim CEO at Veradigm (MDRX) where she led the strategic acquisition of a generative AI company, Science IO. As the first electronic health record firm to have its own proprietary LLM capabilities (in the form of small language models) in-house, she charted a direction to improve the quality of data collection and data abstraction for both clinical care and research. A longtime strategic thinker, Dr. Ho also founded and led Context Matters Inc. — the first data analytics software company focused on global health technology assessments and linking health economics to clinical trial outcomes. Today, Context Matters is part of Clarivate Analytics (CLVT).
Dr. Ho co-founded New York City Health Business Leaders (NYCHBL) — now Digital Health New York (DHNY), and she is currently on the Board of Directors at Segmed (an AI-enabled radiology data aggregator for real world evidence) and serves as an advisor to Lighten AI (a clinical abstraction AI company) and Novellia (an AI-enabled personal health data company).
