AI is helping treat healthcare as if it's a supply chain problem

Over the last few years, companies across industries from retail to manufacturing have started using digital twins to weather the worst of the world's ongoing supply-chain disruptions. "We wanted to step back and look at a country's whole health care network," says Heidi Albert, head of FIND South Africa. "That's what led us to supply-chain thinking." FIND (Foundation for Innovative New Diagnostics) is a nonprofit based in Switzerland. Testing is one of the weakest links in global health care, says Albert: "Our aim is to make sure that everyone who needs a test has access to one."
