In this episode of the BioInventors Podcast, Paeto sits down with Cameron Sabet, a third-year medical student at Georgetown University, epidemiology researcher, and biotech investor. Cameron shares his unconventional journey into research, how he analyzes millions of patient records, and what he’s learned from investing in early-stage biotech companies.
The conversation spans big data in medicine, AI, genetics, bioengineering, and the shifting role of physicians — offering both practical advice for students and high-level insights into where healthcare is headed.
In this episode, we cover:
Cameron’s path into epidemiology and publishing — how he turned classwork into Lancet publications
Large-scale medical research using national databases (NIS, NISQIP)
Redivis & cloud-based data analysis for running studies on millions of patients
Applying finance and regression modeling to healthcare data
The role of genetics and bioengineering in the future of medicine
Long-acting drug delivery systems (half hydrophobic, half hydrophilic pills)
