Today, we’re discussing the news about actor Chris Hemsworth and his genetic test results. Hemsworth announced that he is taking a break from acting after learning that he has a heightened risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease. Our guest today is Ani Rostomyan, a nutrigenomics pharmacist, who will provide some insight and context to the news, and help us understand what this means for the general public. We’ll also discuss the importance of proper education and understanding when it comes to genetic testing and the potential impact on an individual’s mindset, mental health, and personal life.

Ani Rostomyan is a nutrigenomics pharmacist.

She shares her story and discusses her KevinMD article, “In light of Chris Hemsworth’s APOE news: Don’t panic.”

The Podcast by KevinMD is brought to you by the Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience.

With a growing physician shortage, increasing burnout, and declining patient satisfaction, a dramatic change is needed to make health care more efficient and effective and bring back the joy of practicing medicine. AI-driven ambient clinical intelligence promises to help by revolutionizing patient and provider experiences with clinical documentation that writes itself.

The Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience, or DAX for short, is a voice-enabled, ambient clinical intelligence solution that automatically captures patient encounters securely and accurately at the point of care. Physicians who use DAX have reported a 50 percent decrease in documentation time and a 70 percent reduction in feelings of burnout, and 83 percent of patients say their physician is more personable and conversational.

Rediscover the joy of medicine with clinical documentation that writes itself, all within the EHR.
