Lunch Program | This Changes Everything: How Technology Is Revolutionizing Medicine
Margaret Anderson, Mike Milken, Jack Gilbert, Elizabeth Blackburn, Vadim Bachman, Nina Tandon, Juan Enriquez, Mike Cloughton
Based at the Milken Institute, Faster Cures convenes leading scientists like Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn and Juan Enriquez to advocate for a systemic overhaul of biomedical research that addresses the critical gap between 10,000 known diseases and the 500 treatments currently in development. The event highlights transformative breakthroughs in genomics, microbiome manipulation, and synthetic biology, demonstrating how technologies such as nanocytology and living implants are shifting medical paradigms toward early detection and regenerative solutions. By integrating public policy advocacy with these scientific advancements, the organization aims to optimize the research ecosystem and accelerate the delivery of cures for conditions ranging from cancer to neurodegenerative disorders.

The Future Is Now: Things That Will Blow Your Mind
William Santana Lee, Nina Tandon, Dr. Frederick Maul
At this event, William Santana Lee of Nightscope, Nina Tandon of EpiBone, and Dr. Frederick Maul of ORIS presented breakthrough autonomous systems ranging from crime-predicting security robots to tissue-engineered bone grafts and precision surgical micro-robots. These innovations collectively demonstrate a shift toward a "Third Industrial Revolution" where biotechnology and data-driven automation aim to reduce the $1 trillion annual cost of crime while revolutionizing minimally invasive medical procedures and drug testing. The panel further outlined significant challenges in regulatory approval and talent acquisition, alongside a shared vision for deploying tens of thousands of units globally to enhance public safety, accelerate clinical outcomes, and lower healthcare costs.
