We’re excited to be back for another episode of the Life Sciences Today Podcast by Healthcare IT Today. This time I am sitting down with Dr. Steven Charlap, Founder and CEO at SOAP Health to discuss SOAP Health’s autonomous AI Assistant. We start this episode by diving into Dr. Charlap’s background and what led him to found SOAP Health. Dr. Charlap then shares with us his story of why founding SOAP Health is a deeply personal mission to him. Next, we discuss the specifics of what an autonomous clinical AI assistant is and the problem it is solving today.
