Substantial gaps remain in evaluating generative artificial intelligence: language is predominantly English, and region-specific disease patterns are under-represented. A new global network is developing more relevant evaluation and reporting standards. #MAGIC

๐MAGIC paper: nature.com/articles/s41591-0โฆ
๐MAGIC website: magic-ai.health/
MAGIC brings together clinicians, AI researchers, policymakers, industry stakeholders and local experts to address a critical question: does strong benchmark performance translate into safe, useful support across diverse healthcare settings?
Our initial priorities are:
โ
A global health LLM evaluation benchmark addressing multilingual coverage, regional disease burden and sociocultural adaptability.
โ
A global deployment reporting standard clarifying intended use, target users, healthcare settings, and performance and safety across populations.
Thank you to our colleagues #worldwide for helping launch the network. ๐ข๐๐ฟ ๐ด๐ผ๐ฎ๐น ๐ถ๐ ๐๐ผ ๐๐ป๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐บ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐น ๐๐ ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ธ๐, ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ต๐ผ๐บ, ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ป๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ป๐ฑ๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐.

To mark #WorldSightDay this Thursday 8th October, the INSIGHT team is hosting a health data research pop-up event at @Moorfields.
From 1:30-4:30pm at Moorfields Eye Hospital, main entrance, 162 City Rd, London. With @MoorfieldsBRC
ALT Poster on dark blue background, with white INSIGHT and Moorfields logos at top. Underneath, in orange text reads: World Sight Day Pop-up, Thursday 8th Oct., 1:30-4:30pm. Moorfields main entrance on City Rd
With nearly one million anterior segment images of the front of the eye, CADMUS is the most comprehensive dataset of its kind in the world.
Developed through INSIGHT at @Moorfields with @UCLeye, the anonymised data is now accessible to researchers bit.ly/3QFUl5u
Congratulations on behalf of everyone from INSIGHT at @Moorfields to @profadmorris on being Knighted in the King's Birthday Honours.
Researchers at @tohoku_univ and @UCLeye have developed a more precise AI model for measuring retinal age gap - a biomarker indicating the difference between a personโs biological age and their chronological age. #Oculomics @TohokuUniPR

Our colleague Fiston Gatera of @UCLEye @Moorfields took a portable GPU to Rwanda, successfully testing it at @Ciichin_SeekIn. The goal is to enable LMICs to build training data for the world's first globally representative medical AI, Global RETFound.
๐bit.ly/42590cx
The Global RETFound initiative spans more than 100 research teams from 65+ countries. Together they are building an unprecedented medical AI model, trained on 100 million eye images. Co-led by @pearsekeane's group at UCL/Moorfields with @NUSMedicine, @CUHKMedicine
We have updated our data catalogue for #DiabeticRetinopathy, among the world's most comprehensive and diverse longitudinal datasets curated for this condition.
