We are excited to be part of this important work, now published in Nature: “Towards autonomous medical artificial intelligence agents.”
Led by Dyke Ferber, the work presents MIRA, an autonomous AI agent that runs end to end through a clinical patient case. MIRA operates within an EHR sandbox, using a suite of tools to simulate clinical workflows: it can order tests, synthesize results and produce diagnoses and treatment plans while interacting through chat with a patient AI agent.
The study reports that MIRA performed at or above physician level in several evaluated diagnostic and treatment tasks, while maintaining guideline-concordant and medication-safe decisions.
This work marks an important step toward AI systems that move beyond isolated subtasks or free-text advice and become structured, workflow-integrated decision-support partners for clinicians.
Congratulations to the whole team, and many thanks to Dyke Ferber and Jakob Kather for the great collaboration.
