ASCO Special: Dr. David Spetzler on AI, Biomarkers & Public/Private Collaboration

Welcome to HITeaWithGrace, where we spill the tea on all things Health IT! I’m coming to you from the ASCO 2025 conference with powerhouse guest — David Spetzler, MS, MBA, PhD, President of Caris Life Sciences.

Dr. Spetzler talks about about how machine learning is transforming massive datasets into predictive biomarkers that help clinicians personalize cancer treatment — faster, smarter, and with greater precision.

We also explore:

- Why AI for drug discovery is gaining massive traction across oncology research

- Caris’ 37 poster presentations at ASCO 2025, including a standout in early-stage breast cancer research using AI-powered imaging to predict recurrence up to 18 years in advance

- The growing role of public-private partnerships in propelling cancer innovation forward

- How large-scale data + AI = hope for more targeted, proactive patient care

Dr. Spetzler's bold vision is rooted in the idea that AI isn’t just about efficiency — it’s about empathy and getting ahead of disease before it can take hold.
