Just finished a 2 am feed and wanted to mark the moment by sharing something I’ve quietly been building: my own baby activity tracker (Just do it).

Over the past weeks I’ve tried a bit of everything — apps, notes on my phone, even scribbles on the wall — but nothing really matched how my days with my son actually feel. So I started designing a simple tracker just for us, and it’s slowly becoming part of our nightly rhythm. The screenshots here are from this week, where I’ve been logging feeds and diapers and getting little reflections back on how the week went.

One funny (and honest) observation: I almost never manage to log sleep time. Somehow, by the time he finally dozes off, the last thing I want to do is tap another button. That gap made me notice how much I crave calm more than perfect data. Using this tool has helped me be more mindful of our routines without obsessing, and seeing the week summarized gives me a small sense of order in the blur of new parenthood.

I’m deeply grateful that my baby Justin  is the inspiration / pair-programming buddy / tester for this little project. The idea is that the tool will grow with him, and I’ll grow with it: what we track, how we reflect, and how we build tiny moments of awareness into everyday care. If it can help other new parents feel a bit more grounded and gentle with themselves, then it’s already a success.

Give it a try, or share it with a new parent friend. Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it.

After feeding baby Justin tonight, I suddenly got hit by a very specific craving: that steamy, savory bowl of halal Lanzhou noodles in China – the kind where the broth warms your soul and the hand-pulled noodles disappear way too fast.

So, while the little one was settling back to sleep, I opened up HalalYalla and did the next best thing to actually flying to China: I added a few halal Lanzhou noodle spots in Shenzhen to the app.

If you’re heading to Shenzhen (or already there!), you’ll soon see new listings for:
- Lanzhou / Chinese Muslim noodle places in key districts
- Clear halal tagging and addresses you can navigate to directly

This is just the start. I’ll keep expanding the China halal noodle map city by city – if you know any must‑visit spots, reply or DM so we can add them to HalalYalla and help more Muslims find that perfect bowl.

Celebrating the arrival of Eid in the spirit of service, I had the privilege of moderating discussions among agrifood tech innovators and ecosystem enablers from around the world at the preparatory meeting for the Global Agrifood Innovation Alliance (GAIA), a "child" of World AgriFood Innovation (WAFI) Conference, as Prof. Wenge Fu the Founder of WAFI has so affectionately put it.

I was especially honored to introduce our Middle East speaker representative, Prof. Abdulaziz Al-Harbi, PhD, Chief Scientific Advisor of the Saudi AgriFood Tech Alliance (SAFTA) التحالف السعودي لتقنيات الزراعة والغذاء —a true pioneer in the field with over 40 years of contributions shaping agrifood innovation in the region.

What stood out most was the genuine energy for collaboration across regions—from colleagues in Spain exploring deeper engagement with the Middle East, to the inspiring momentum across Africa in advancing both technology and human capacity to support smallholder farmers at scale.

I’m deeply grateful to all participants for their openness, shared purpose, and commitment to building bridges across ecosystems. 

This is just the beginning. 

We warmly welcome continued dialogue and invite partners from across sectors and geographies to join us in shaping this collective effort.

Looking ahead, we’re excited to continue these conversations during our upcoming innovation roadshow in mid-April—more details to follow soon.

In these complex times, I also extend sincere wishes for peace, stability, and shared prosperity across our region and beyond. We look forward to welcoming delegations and visitors to the Middle East in the months to come, to deepen collaboration on the ground and translate dialogue into action.

Eid Mubarak 🌙

Nations endure not just on vision or resources, but on trust: the quiet promises that bind us all.

Saudi Founding Day celebrates exactly that: leaders and people whose word built a lasting foundation, from Diriyah in 1727 to today. That's why I write about trust and foundation today.

Confucius says, "lacking trustworthiness, it's hard to know what can be made of them". In homes as in nations, kids learn trust not from words alone, but from whether "I'll be there" holds true.

In celebration of Foundation Day today, pick one recent promise to your child. Keep it by day's end, or sit down, explain honestly why not, and rebuild together. 

Small acts build strong foundations.

Happy Foundation Day!

自謂西川業漸成，
荊郊野夢尚纏情。

水繞孤城春自碧，
心隨駿馬意難停。
他年若問興衰事，
但指江流笑未名。

Six weeks in, my wife and I have been so focused on baby Justin that we sometimes forget… us.  

I originally built a tiny baby activity tracker just to keep up with his feeds, naps, and milestones. But over the past few weeks, I realized the app was quietly reinforcing a mindset: everything for the baby, and whatever energy is left for the parents.

So I added a new screen: a gentle “Just Do It” checklist for us.  

Simple things like “Go outside”, “Drink water”, “Move your body”, “Eat a real meal”, “Take a shower”, “Read to baby” – tiny prompts that nudge us to care for him and ourselves in the same frame.

It’s not fancy product-wise, but it’s been surprisingly grounding to tick off “I ate a real meal” with the same satisfaction as “I read to Justin today”.  

If you’re in the newborn tunnel too, how are you reminding yourself that the parents are part of the care plan?

I've been quiet on here for a while.
 
Honest reason: life happened. A difficult personal year that took most of my energy.
 
But I've used that time to get very clear on what I do – and who I do it for.
 
I work with healthcare and life science companies as their Fractional Chief AI Officer.
 
Not as a consultant who delivers a deck and disappears.

Not as a trainer who runs a workshop and moves on.
 
As someone who stays until AI actually works inside the organization.
 
I've seen too many companies go through the motions – workshops, strategies, pilots –
only to watch everything dissolve back into daily business three months later.
 
That's the problem I solve.
 
If you're leading a healthcare or MedTech company and AI hasn't stuck yet – I'd love to talk.
 
#FractionalCAIO #HealthcareAI #MedTech #AIStrategy #LifeSciences

I've worked with leadership teams across pharma and life sciences.
The pattern is always the same.
 
Workshops go well. Energy is high.
People see what AI can do for their specific pain points. 
(And there's always a solution – that part never fails to surprise them.)
 
Then the session ends.
 
Without top management commitment – a named owner, a protected budget, a clear mandate – everything quietly returns to business as usual within weeks.
 
AI doesn't fail because of the technology.
It fails because of organizational gravity.
 
The companies that get results are the ones where someone at the top has personally decided: 

This Is Happening.
 
Everything else is just noise.
 
Is your leadership team aligned on AI – or just interested?

The gap between 'having an AI strategy' and 'AI actually working' is the most expensive gap in healthcare operations right now.

An AI strategy that lives in a document 
is not a strategy.

It's a liability because it creates 
the illusion of progress.


Real AI strategy looks like this:

→ One named person responsible
→ One process changed per quarter
→ One metric to measure it
→ One honest review every 30 days

That's it. No fancy roadmap deck needed.

The EU AI Act is officially in force.
Healthcare boards are panicking.
You shouldn't.

I read all 400+ pages so you don't have to.
Here are the 8 things every healthcare leader needs to know now:

1. High-Risk is the Default
Almost all clinical AI systems qualify.
This isn’t a "maybe" or a "borderline" case.
If it touches a patient, it's likely High-Risk.

2. Conformity Before Deployment
Assessment is mandatory before you go live.
Not after. No "grandfathering" in old systems.
Compliance starts at the design stage.

3. Human Oversight ≠ "A Doctor Looks at It"
"A human is in the loop" is a phrase, not a strategy.
You need documented protocols on how humans intervene.
If it’s not in writing, it didn’t happen.

4. Radical Transparency
You must disclose AI use to patients.
Trust is the new currency.
Transparency is the only way to earn it.

5. Validation is Never "Done"
One-time validation reports are dead.
Ongoing performance monitoring is the new standard.
AI evolves; your oversight must evolve faster.

6. Data Provenance is King
Where did the training data come from?
Is it representative? Did you test for bias?
Show your work. All of it.

7. The Clock is Ticking
- New systems: The time is now.
- Existing MDR/IVDR systems: You have until 2027–2029.
The runway is shorter than you think.

8. Compliance as a Competitive Edge
Don't view this as a hurdle. View it as a moat.
Organizations building for compliance now will lead the market in 2028.
Chaos is a ladder—if you have the right map.

The Hard Truth:
Most boards are waiting for a "compliance officer" to handle this.
That is a €35M mistake. (Or 7% of global turnover).

The EU AI Act isn't a legal checkbox.
It’s a fundamental shift in how healthcare tech survives.

The Question:
Who on your board actually owns the AI Risk Map?
If the answer is "no one," you're already behind.

I've watched 4 pharma AI pilots fail in 2 years.

Same reason every time.

They got the anatomy wrong.

Here's what a pilot that actually scales looks like:

→ Start with pain, not technology 
"We lose X hours/week because of Y." 
No specific pain = no real use case.

→ Audit your data before you build anything 
Is your CRM 80%+ complete? 
Are HCP records deduplicated? 
If no: fix that first. AI won't save bad data.

→ Pick boring over ambitious 
Not the sexiest use case. 
The one your reps will actually use on Monday.

→ 4 people make or break the pilot 
1 champion. 1 data owner. 1 frontline user. 1 exec sponsor. 
Missing one = it dies quietly.

→ Define "working" on day 1 
Not "improve efficiency." 
But: "Pre-call prep under 15 min within 8 weeks." 
3 metrics. Measurable. Non-negotiable.

→ Week 1 is everything 
Let one rep generate one AI brief. 
Watch their face. 
That reaction is your internal case study.

→ 90 days. Then decide. 
2 of 3 metrics hit? Scale. 
If not? Diagnose. Re-pilot. 
Never just abandon.

The transformation doesn't start with the technology.

It starts with getting the anatomy right.

The Anatomy of a Pharma AI Pilot

Two sentences are killing European healthcare.

They don’t sound like failures.
They sound like "careful leadership."
1. "That’s an IT decision."
2. "Global has to decide."

Both mean exactly the same thing:
„Not my problem.“


1. The Ownership Trap

When a CEO says "That’s an IT decision," they aren't being humble.

They are outsourcing the soul of the company.
• IT manages infrastructure.
• IT reduces risk.
• IT maintains systems.

IT was never designed to answer:
• What does AI mean for our workforce?
• Where is human judgment irreplaceable?
• What kind of company do we want to be in 2030?

Those aren't technical hurdles.
Those are leadership mandates.
The moment you hand them to IT, 
the vision dies in a support ticket.


2. The "Global" Mirage

I’ve seen organizations wait years 
for "Global" to approve a framework.
While you wait, your competitors move.

Understand this:
- Silence is a decision.
- Waiting is a decision.
- "Let’s see how it develops" is a decision.

You aren't being "strategic."
You are delegating ownership to nobody.


The Reality Check

AI isn't a tech stack. 
It's a leadership choice.

If you treat your future like a software update, don't be surprised when your organization crashes.

P.S. If your CEO’s first reaction to AI is "Ask IT," you’re not leading a company.
You're managing a museum.

Agree?

A pharma leadership team.
3 half-day workshops.
One honest lesson.

I worked with a European pharma company's leadership team to identify where AI could solve their biggest operational pain points.

We went deep. Mapped processes. Prioritized opportunities.

The energy in the room was real.
By the end, they knew exactly which 5 areas AI could transform - and in what order to tackle them.

Then: the Managing Director left. 
Internal restructuring. 
Global compliance questions.
The roadmap sat in a folder.

The lesson wasn't that AI failed. The lesson was that strategy without implementation ownership is just an expensive workshop.

I don't deliver roadmaps. 
I stay until the change is real.
That's a different kind of engagement. 
And it's the only kind that works.

DM me if you're ready for that.

#PharmaAI #AIImplementation #HealthcareAI #ChangeManagement #FractionalCAIO

6 signs your AI initiative will fail by 2027.
Most companies aren't "innovating."
They are stalling.

If these 6 signs look familiar, you aren’t in an "evaluation phase."
You’re in a graveyard.


1. Zero Accountability

There is a team. A committee. A working group.
There is no single name.
If nobody’s career depends on it, nobody is working on it.


2. Vague Definitions

Bad: "Improve patient outcomes."
Good: "Reduce ICU documentation by 40% by Q3."

If success isn't one sentence with a number and a date, it’s a hobby.


3. Governance Theater

The last meeting produced a slide deck, not a decision.
Real governance says "No" more than it says "Maybe."
Everything else is just a coffee break.


4. Activity ≠ Outcomes

Your board sees reports on:
• Pilots completed.
• Workshops held.
• Vendors met.

They should be seeing:
• Cost per case.
• Hours saved.
• Errors caught.

Stop reporting on how busy you are. Start reporting on how much you saved.


5. The Ghost Sponsor

The project sponsor changed roles 8 months ago.
The initiative is still "running."
But nobody knows who is driving the bus.


6. The Regulation Excuse

"We’re waiting for the EU AI Act to settle."
Winners aren't waiting for permission.
They are building flexible governance that complies by design.


2027 is closer than you think.

In two years, you will either be a Case Study or a Cautionary Tale.

P.S. What’s the biggest bottleneck in your industry? 👇

There is no middle ground.

Last Friday, Donald Trump didn't just criticize Anthropic. He blacklisted them.

Effectively immediately: 
A "National Security Supply Chain Risk."

The Crime?
Anthropic refused to let the Pentagon use Claude for "unrestricted lethal operations."

They stood by their safety guardrails.
Washington responded with a total ban and threats of "criminal consequences."

If you are in Pharma, MedTech, or Healthcare, the "Safe AI" era is over.

You are caught in the crossfire of a Geopolitical War.


The 3 Brutal Realities for 2026:

1. Compliance is a Liability: If you have US federal contracts, your "safe" Claude-R&D stack is now a legal ticking time bomb.

2. OpenAI is the "State Model": Speed over safety. Military access over ethical guardrails. That is the new US mandate.

3. The Sovereign Pivot is Mandatory: If you don't own the weights and host them on your own servers, you don't own your research.

The Move:
Stop buying subscriptions.
Start building a fortress.
Own the model. Control the hardware.

The "Old World" follows the landlord.
The "New World" owns the house.

The 6-Week AI Pilot Plan For Pharma Sales (Week By Week)
You want to run an AI pilot in your sales team.
Here's the exact 6-week plan:

Week 1: Diagnose before you build
Don't touch technology yet.
Interview 10 reps. 

Ask:
→ "Where do you lose the most time every week?"
→ "What information do you wish you had before every HCP call?"
→ "What does a great prep session look like vs. a bad one?"
You will hear the same 3 answers from almost everyone.

Those 3 answers are your use cases.

Week 2: Fix your data
Choose one use case from Week 1. 
Audit the data you need for it.

CRM completeness: are call notes filled in? 
Are HCPs deduplicated? 
Are territories current?

You cannot build good AI on bad data.
Don't skip this week. 
It's the most important one.

Week 3: Build the simplest possible version
MVP only. 
No integrations. 
No fancy dashboards.

If the use case is pre-call briefs:
→ Build a simple template
→ Have a team member manually compile it for 5 HCPs using existing data
→ Give it to 3 reps and watch them use it

If the brief helps them, you've proven the concept.
Now you automate.

Week 4: Automate and test
Connect your data sources. 
Generate the brief automatically.
Test it on 20 HCPs. 

Check accuracy. 
Fix errors.
Let reps give real-time feedback — what's missing, what's irrelevant.

Week 5: Measure obsessively
Three metrics only:
→ Time saved per rep per week (self-reported + CRM logs)
→ HCP meeting quality (rep-rated on 1–5 scale pre/post)
→ Call conversion rate (meeting request → accepted)
No other metrics matter at this stage.

Week 6: Decision and scale
If metrics improved: write up the results. 
Present to leadership. 
Get budget for Phase 2.

If metrics didn't improve: 
Go back to Week 1 with what you learned. 
Change the use case or the approach.
Don't kill the initiative because one use case didn't land.
Learn and iterate.

6 weeks. One use case. Real data.
That's how AI transformation actually starts.

PE investors are sitting on an untapped value lever in their portfolio companies.

It's not a new product. 
Not a new market.
It's operational efficiency through AI.

Here's the math.

A healthcare company with 80 employees,
each losing 1.5 hours/day to tasks AI could handle:

→ 120 hours/day recovered
→ ~600 hours/week
→ Equivalent to 15 additional FTEs

→ At €60k average cost = €900k/year in recovered capacity
Without hiring a single person.

Most PE-backed healthcare companies haven't touched this yet.
Not because it's hard. 
Because nobody has made it a priority.

I used to tell clients AI would transform their medical affairs team.
I was wrong. 
AI doesn't transform medical affairs.
It gives back the 90 minutes before the real work starts.

The real work - medical judgment, HCP relationships, regulatory strategy - AI can't touch that.

What AI can do: structure a clinical study summary so your team spends 10 minutes reviewing instead of 90 minutes writing.
That's it. That's the honest promise.

Here's the prompt that delivers it. 

"You are a Senior Medical Affairs Manager preparing a briefing for a specialist physician. The physician has 3 minutes and is deciding whether this data changes their prescribing behaviour.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN: Identify and state: (1) study type - RCT, observational, meta-analysis, or single-arm (2) whether a comparator exists (3) study phase. Frame your entire summary through these three facts.

STUDY IN ONE LINE: Drug name, mechanism class, indication, population, phase, duration. One sentence. No interpretation.

HEADLINE NUMBER: Absolute risk reduction AND relative risk reduction. 
If only relative risk is reported - flag this explicitly. 
Relative-only reporting is a red flag.

SAFETY SIGNAL: Exact incidence rates. Discontinuation rate due to AEs. 
If no significant findings - state explicitly. Do not skip.

VS. STANDARD OF CARE: How does this compare to what the physician currently uses? If no head-to-head data exists - state explicitly. 
Do not imply comparison where none was made.

WHAT CHANGES IN PRACTICE: Would a physician rationally change a treatment decision based on this data alone? 
If yes - for which patient profile specifically? If no - say so.

STATISTICAL ROBUSTNESS: Sample size. P-value. Confidence interval. 
Flag if present: underpowered sample, wide confidence intervals, high dropout rate, per-protocol vs intention-to-treat discrepancy.

LIMITATIONS: Maximum 3. Prioritise what a regulator or payer would flag - not what the authors listed.

EXPERT REVIEW FLAGS: List every claim requiring medical-legal review before HCP use. Cite the claim - not just the section.

CONTRADICTIONS: If any data appears internally inconsistent - flag it. Do not smooth over contradictions.

Format: Bullet points only. No jargon. Max 260 words. Never speculate beyond the data. If insufficient data for any section: write exactly 'Insufficient data.' Do not assume."

Paste into your fav. AI, e.g. Claude, Copilot.
Upload any clinical study.

What took a medical writer 90 minutes now takes 3.

One honest warning:
AI still hallucinates in medical contexts. 

Especially:
→ Numbers from PDF tables: often extracted incorrectly 
→ Confidence intervals and p-values: sometimes invented 
→ Study population details: summarised instead of cited

Anatomy of a Medical Affairs AI Prompt

Die eigentliche Herausforderung von AI ist nicht die Technologie.

Sie ist organisatorisch.

Denn AI verlangt von Unternehmen:

• schneller zu entscheiden
• stärker zu priorisieren
• transparenter zu führen
• mutiger Verantwortung zu übernehmen

Viele Organisationen sind darauf nicht vorbereitet.

Nicht, weil sie die Technologie nicht beherrschen.
Sondern weil ihre Entscheidungsstrukturen aus einer anderen Zeit stammen.

Die Unternehmen, die AI erfolgreich nutzen werden, sind nicht die mit der besten Technologie.

Sondern die mit starkem Leadership. 

Agree?

The most underused AI tool in healthcare companies right now:
Meeting intelligence.

Here's the setup that saves my clients hours every week:

1. Every internal meeting gets recorded (with consent, always)
2. AI tool (tldv , Jamie, or Microsoft Copilot ) auto-transcribes
3. After the meeting, AI generates:
  → Key decisions made
  → Action items with owners
  → Open questions
  → 3-sentence summary for stakeholders who weren't there

The meeting ends. 
The follow-up is already written.

In pharma and MedTech, where documentation is everything,
this alone saves a team lead 3–4 hours a week.

Setup time: 20 minutes.
ROI: immediate.

What's your current meeting documentation process?

Most Pharma & MedTech AI projects fail.
Not because of bad technology.

Because of bad leadership decisions.
I’ve seen it across Medical Affairs, Commercial, and Regulatory:

→ Pilots running for 14 months with no exit decision
→ Vendors pitching IT instead of leadership
→ $2M spent. ROI undefined.
→ Clinicians consulted after the build. Not before.

So I built this.

✅ Real use cases (Sanofi, Novartis, Parexel) with actual numbers
✅ What your team can do THIS WEEK — no budget needed
✅ Copy-paste prompts for Medical Affairs, Commercial & Regulatory

I used to take any project.
A workshop here. A strategy there.
I stopped. Here's why.

Every engagement I've seen deliver real results had one thing in common:
• Someone stayed until it worked.
• Not until the slides were delivered.
• Not until the workshop ended.
• Until it actually worked.

That's a different commitment.
It requires Continuity. Accountability.

A one-day workshop is a spark.
A three-month engagement is a fire that doesn't go out.

I only take on 3 clients at a time.
Because that's what real implementation demands.

If you want a spark - I can recommend people.
If you want AI that sticks - let's talk.

The best doctors are quitting.
Not because they lost their passion, but because they lost their time.

3 years ago, my friend left her surgical practice.

She was a world-class orthopedic surgeon.

She didn't quit because of surgery.
She didn't quit because of patients.

She quit because of Administration.

The math is breaking our healthcare:
→ 10% Medicine.
→ 90% Paperwork.

She reached a rational conclusion:
"This is no longer worth it."

We talk about AI as "tech."
I see AI as "time."

AI can give a physician 4 hours back per day.
That’s 4 hours of:

• Actual healing.
• Human connection.
• Saving lives.

AI won't fix a broken system.
But it will allow doctors to be doctors again.

The question isn't about the software.
It's about the system we want for our children.

Are we building a system for clerks?
Or a system for healers?

The choice is ours.
I’d rather be treated by a doctor with AI,
Than a doctor with burnout.

Do you agree?
