About the issue:

In this issue of Asian Scientist Magazine, we look at emerging health technologies such as artificial intelligence and blockchain that are making positive impacts on healthcare (Innovation In The Pink Of Health, p. 14). 

To find out how ideas are transformed into industry-changing products, we spoke with Professor Dennis Lo (How To Birth A Billion-dollar Industry, p. 28), inventor of non-invasive prenatal testing—a revolutionary technique that allows would-be parents to find out the genetic status of their child.
