Cedars-Sinai expanded its use of artificial intelligence (AI) in 2025, focusing on practical applications across its health system. The organization used AI to address clinical, academic, and administrative challenges with the aim of improving care and efficiency.
Odeh, chief data and artificial intelligence officer at Cedars-Sinai, described the organization’s approach over the past year. “AI is not just a tool; it is a catalyst for innovation and transformation,” Odeh said. “Our work this past year centered on translating innovative ideas into solutions with real-world impact and solutions that improve care, enhance discovery and teaching, and create greater efficiencies.”
Looking ahead to future developments, Odeh added: “our focus for AI is rooted in our mission—elevating the health status of the communities we serve. The pace of innovation is accelerating, and the cumulative impact is growing.”
In 2025, under Odeh’s direction, the Cedars-Sinai AI Council brought together clinicians, researchers, data specialists, and other professionals to advance multiple AI initiatives throughout the organization.
