Twin Things Podcast: Simulating Humans

— now live on all major platforms

This is a special edition of the Sano Newsletter, dedicated entirely to Twin Things Podcast: Simulating Humans — a podcast produced at Sano Centre for Computational Medicine by host Katarzyna Baliga-Nicholson and producer Kamil Pilch.

Recorded not in a studio but in Kasia’s living room, each episode brings together researchers who build digital twins, use AI to model the human body, and turn messy real-world data into tools that could one day help doctors make better decisions. The goal is simple: make complex science feel human.

Seven episodes are already available, covering topics from simulating blood flow and why we still haven’t beaten cancer, to the role of supercomputers in digital twin research and the shift from sick care to predictive medicine. Upcoming episodes will explore neuromorphic computing, federated learning in diagnostics, and whether AI can truly think like a doctor.
