Summary

  • Dominique J Monlezun, MD, PhD, PhD, MPH is the world’s first triple doctorate-trained physician-data scientist and AI (artificial intelligence) ethicist. He creates pioneering AI-accelerated population health advances, policies, and ethics to help solve our world's most urgent health challenges and inequities, particularly in cardio-oncology and poverty (bridging both the personalized medicine and public health ends of the healthcare spectrum). He created Machine Learning-augmented Propensity Score adjusted regression (ML-PSr) statistics, BAyesian Machine learning-augmented Propensity Score translational (BAM-PS) statistics, the AI Health mathematical model, AI-driven Computational Ethics (AiCE), and Personalist Social Contract (PSC) ethics, after co-founding the preventive cardiology field of Culinary Medicine. Growing up in his poor farming town inspired him to earn his MD (Tulane University School of Medicine) followed by his first AI-focused PhD (Global Health Management & Policy) and second PhD (Bioethics), for which Microsoft honored as the world’s top doctoral dissertation on AI ethics. He serves as Professor of Bioethics (Italy’s Athenaeum Regina Apostolorum + Mexico’s Universidad Anáhuac), Professor of Cardiology (Adjunct Asst. for University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and UT-Houston McGovern Medical School), Chief Data Scientist (Global System Analytics & Structures), Research Scholar (UNESCO Chair in Bioethics & Human Rights), Chief for the Section of Statistics and Ethics in addition to the Section of Health Disparities (Interventional Onco-cardiology Society), and Principal Investigator for over 50 randomized and cohort trials and studies. He authored the first four comprehensive textbooks on AI-driven health equity in global bioethics, multicultural metaphysics, healthcare systems, and global health, in addition to 375+ peer-reviewed manuscripts + conference presentations, while providing medical care for thousands of underserved patients.
