Actor Romola Garai, AI research and breast cancer, Rebecca Watson
Award-winning actor Romola Garai talks to Nuala about her latest stage role.
Annie Ernaux鈥檚 Booker-nominated book, Les Ann茅es, traces her journey from childhood in post-war France to old age in the post-9/11 era. Now adapted for the stage, Gina Mckee, Deborah Findlay and Romola Garai, alongside Anjli Mohindra and Harmony Rose-Bremner, are the five actors portraying different stages in the life of an 鈥榰nnamed鈥� French woman. Romola Garai joins Nuala McGovern in the Woman鈥檚 Hour studio.
We talk to Regina Barzilay, a Professor of AI & Health in the Department of Computer Science at MIT, about how her own breast cancer diagnosis shifted her research to predicting cancer. Regina and her team have built an Artificial Intelligence system that can predict almost half of all incidences of breast cancer up to five years before they happen.
And author Rebecca Watson on her latest novel I Will Crash - a unique take on sibling torment.
