Turning AI Potential into Practice in Clinical Programming

AI has the potential to reshape clinical programming. But in regulated environments, success depends on how it’s applied. In this episode of the R for the Rest of Us podcast, Atorus Chief Innovation Officer Mike Stackhouse shares a practical perspective on using AI with R in clinical workflows without compromising quality or compliance. 

The conversation highlights how AI tools should be treated as powerful assistants, not replacements for expertise. For clinical teams, that means combining AI with strong validation practices, reproducibility, and human review.  

Mike Stackhouse and host David Keyes also detail how teams can move beyond experimentation and start applying AI in meaningful ways such as:  

  • Supporting faster, more efficient programming workflows  
  • Maintaining control in regulated environments  
  • Ensuring outputs are reliable and reproducible
