Thirty-three years old, Lin Zhixia is an attending physician in the Department of Neurology at a tertiary hospital and a working doctor.
Facing a 16-year-old boy waiting for surgery, after reading the 72-hour EEG record, she still could only write "suspected" on the report.
She decided to let the machine screen it for the doctor first.
Using public data and open source tools, Lin Zhixia built the EEG-assisted screening system "Qibo". When everyone was celebrating the beautiful results, she personally overturned the model with data leakage; in the first real verification, Qi Bo flagged a period of suspicious activity that was regarded as an artifact.
But as soon as the review results appeared, her research account experienced abnormal access at 3:07 a. M., Her data permissions were frozen, and the project was quietly included in the joint team. Li Wei, the new doctor of methodology, makes every statement reasonable, but step by step she takes away the platform, results and position of person in charge.
Lin Zhixia had to prove two things: she was not responsible for that unusual visit; Qi Bo was not a miracle diagnosis for doctors, but a set of tools that could withstand failure, audit and clinical verification.
This time, she's looking to get back more than just an item.
She wants doctors to decide how technology enters hospitals, rather than letting technology decide the fate of patients for doctors.
