Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

DCP+ Podcast Episode 4: Georgina Merhom on How Quality Data Can Transform Financial Services, Part 1
Q: What first drew you into the world of financial services and data?
Georgina traces her path from cybersecurity and open-source intelligence to finance, highlighting the opportunity to use data to unlock access for under-banked populations and to build trustworthy, reusable data infrastructure.
When Your Life Sciences Are on the Line: AI and the FDA
Q: How is FDA approaching the boundary between clinical decision support and medical devices with AI?
There is guidance on clinical decision support and device exclusions, with four criteria including understandability; AI tools should support rather than replace clinicians, and explainability will be key to determining regulatory scope.
When Your Life Sciences Are on the Line: AI and the FDA
Q: What does your crystal ball say about how quickly AI tools will be adopted by FDA and how effective they will be?
Brigid notes rapid tool development, acknowledges ongoing questions about legal standards and human oversight, and emphasizes that AI will augment rather than replace human reviewers, with adoption phased and guarded by regulatory requirements.
When Your Life Sciences Are on the Line: AI and the FDA
Q: Can you give us a bit of detail about your background and how you came to focus your practice in the space?
Brigid explains her path from environmental regulatory law into FDA work, including her biochemistry background and experience in FDA laboratories, which informs her regulatory practice across devices, drugs, biologics, and gene therapies.
DCP+ Podcast Episode 5: Georgina Merhom on How Quality Data Can Transform Financial Services, Part 2
Q: Georgina, you've talked a little bit about a data dividend model. What would that look like in practice?
It would involve literally paying individuals for the value their data creates in different contexts, with a three-tier system: some data access is free, others are priced, and in commercial use cases consumers would opt in and receive dividends based on the data they provided.
