ALS takes center stage. Kudos to this amazing couple!!
Person living with ALS, Advocate, Activist, Creator, Entrepreneur, lawyer, who is fighting to end ALS on every front
It was the honor of a lifetime to speak at last night’s Democratic National Convention with Sandra Abrevaya to support Kamala Harris. She is working to make the American dream possible for everyone, including those living with neurodegenerative diseases and their caregivers.

Modality to Present Four Papers at Premier Speech Conference – Interspeech 2024 https://lnkd.in/d7bz8QbE taking place in Greece September 1–5, – the world’s most important speech technology conference, a meeting point for professionals across the spectrum from academic researchers to industry experts. The four accepted papers showcase Modality’s work in developing multimodal digital biomarkers for neurological and mental health conditions. By analyzing speech, facial expressions, movements, and patient-reported symptoms through our conversational AI platform, Modality.AI is advancing the state of the art in measuring, diagnosing and remotely monitoring these conditions. * MCI: Towards Scalable Remote Assessment of Mild Cognitive Impairment Via Multimodal Dialog https://lnkd.in/gGfeSEAt * ALS: Multimodal Digital Biomarkers for Longitudinal Tracking of Speech Impairment Severity in ALS: An Investigation of Clinically Important Differences https://lnkd.in/gEm-uG6G * ALS: How Consistent are Speech-Based Biomarkers in Remote Tracking of ALS Disease Progression Across Languages? https://lnkd.in/gDMpaJP6 * AUTISM: Preliminary Investigation of Psychometric Properties of a Novel Multimodal Dialog Based Affect Production Task in Children and Adolescents with Autism https://lnkd.in/gDJJ5cwU We at Modality are also committed to shaping and contributing to community discourse around standardizing the use of speech biomarkers in the digital healthcare ecosystem. At Interspeech, our Chief Science Officer, Dr. Vikram Ramanarayanan, is part of the organizing committee of a special session on Speech and Language in Health: from Remote Monitoring to Medical Conversations. https://lnkd.in/gxBEUqd6 In addition to Vikram and Drs. Oliver Roesler and Hardik Kothare, two of our 2024 research interns, Emma Leschly and Cathy Zhang, will attend the conference. Emma and Cathy were invited to participate in the Young Female Researchers in Speech Workshop at Interspeech 2024 on the basis of their rigorous scientific work at Modality - their conference fees were waived and each was awarded a stipend. We are proud of our team's commitment to research and sharing key findings through publications and conferences. #clinicaltrials #autism #als

Modality.AI Celebrates Milestone with 100th Peer-Reviewed Publication! We are proud to announce a significant milestone in Modality.AI's journey of advancing clinical research. Our team has achieved 100 peer-reviewed publications https://lnkd.in/gFXvFpAx, underscoring our commitment to scientific excellence and innovation. This achievement is marked by the publication of a groundbreaking study in the journal Neurology: Clinical Practice titled “Cognitive Symptoms in Cross-Sectional Parkinson Disease Cohort Evaluated by Human-in-the-Loop Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing.” https://lnkd.in/g4QQmWgS The article was co-authored by our late Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Ira Shoulson, MD, who was the senior author alongside Modality Chief Operating Officer Lakshmi Arbatti, MS, and Data Scientist, Abhishek Hosamath, MBM. The study exemplifies our dedication to leveraging the patient’s voice and technology in clinical research to enhance clinical monitoring. In this study, we examined problems self-reported by over 25,000 PD patients collected using the PD-PROPTM, Dr. Shoulson’s brainchild, through the online Fox Insight platform. Study results highlighted the cognitive challenges faced by people living with Parkinson’s disease (PD), revealing that up to 32% of patients report substantial cognitive symptoms early on in their illness. Dr. Shoulson's visionary leadership, invaluable contributions, and commitment to making patient voices heard continue to inspire our work. His legacy of rigorous scientific inquiry and dedication to improving patient outcomes through innovative research remains a cornerstone of Modality.AI. As we celebrate this milestone, we remain committed to pushing the boundaries of clinical research outside traditional clinic settings and into patients’ homes. We sincerely thank our team, collaborators, and the scientific community for their support and contributions. #clinicaltrials #clinicalresearch #neurology #ParkinsonsDisease

In Conversation: "A Turning Point in ALS Trials" with Karl Kieburtz, MD, MPH https://lnkd.in/gmSCNnku Modality is building the most comprehensive audio/visual dataset of people living with ALS to enable biopharma organizations to run more informative clinical trials. New measures of what patients say and do can provide key insights into understanding the course of disease progression in natural history studies and treatment effects in clinical trials. In this 45-minute conversation, Modality CEO David "DSO" Suendermann-Oeft discusses advancements in digital endpoints and the potential to accelerate clinical research with special guest Karl Kieburtz, MD, MPH, the Co-Founder and Chair of Clintrex, and principal investigator for numerous multi-center trials in neurology over multiple decades. We are pleased to share this recording of their discussion over Zoom on International ALS/MND Day - June 21, 2024. #als #clinicaltrials

DSO wraps up a hectic couple of months in Basel today, Wednesday 26th.
This week, Modality's CEO, David "DSO" Suendermann-Oeft, will present at the Digital Biomarkers in Clinical Trials Summit, now in its seventh year. The summit brings into focus new digital health tools (DHT) that can supplement existing biomarker strategies to collect better data and improve the patient experience in clinical trials. DSO will be joining over 40 speakers and advisors, 300+ senior-level pharma, clinical trials, technology, and digital health executives in person on June 26, 2024, at Roche Headquarters in Basel. Be sure to connect with DSO if you’re attending. DSO's poster is titled: "When Words Speak Just as Loudly as Actions: Virtual Guide Based Remote Health Assessment Integrating What Patients Say with What They Do" Abstract: We present a unified multimodal dialog platform for the remote assessment and monitoring of patients' neurological and mental health. Tina, a virtual agent, guides participants through an immersive interaction wherein objective speech, facial, linguistic and cognitive biomarkers can be automatically computed from participant speech and video in near real time. Furthermore, Tina encourages participants to describe, in their own words, their most bothersome problems and what makes them better or worse through the Patient Report of Problems (PROP) instrument. We argue that combining these patient reports (i.e., what they say) with objective biomarkers (i.e., how they say it and what they do) can greatly enhance the quality of telemedicine and improve the efficacy of siteless trials and digital therapeutic interventions.
