Speaker Profile
Ph.D., Co-Founder, MedBAR.ai
Biography
Dvir leads the technology behind MedBAR.ai, a simulation platform that benchmarks how clinical AI reasons, beyond accuracy and safety, and adds a clinical reasoning layer for the complexity of real clinical decisions.
Dvir is also an associate professor at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, where his lab works on biomedical data science and clinical AI. Atul Butte was his postdoctoral mentor at Sanford & UCSF, and he carries Atul's evidence-first approach into his research: real data, measured outcomes and a direct line to patient care. His earlier tools, xCell and SingleR, are widely used in biomedical research. His recent works in 2026 were published in Cancer Cell, Lancet Oncology, Nature Medicine and NEJM AI.

Beyond Accuracy: Benchmarking How Clinical AI Reasons
Accuracy and safety scores miss how clinical AI reasons. MedBAR.ai runs clinical AI through simulated encounters built from real cases and benchmarks every decision on the route. A clinical reasoning layer then closes the gaps it finds. For a leading health network's triage AI, weak routes fell 60–70%.
AI for Clinical Decision Support Systems Showcase:
MedBAR.ai
MedBAR.ai is a simulation platform that benchmarks how clinical AI reasons, beyond accuracy and safety, on encounters built from verified real cases. Its clinical reasoning layer brings the complexity of clinical decisions into the AI at runtime: missing facts, hidden risks, the next question.
Session Abstract – PMWC 2027 Silicon Valley
The PMWC 2027 AI for Clinical Decision Support Showcase will provide a 15-30 minute time slot for selected organizations, including commercial companies, clinical testing labs, and medical research institutions, to present their latest advancements, insights, applications, and technologies to an audience of clinicians, leading investigators, academic institutions, pharma and biotech, investors, and potential clients. We will learn about new technologies and findings that promise expedited, cost-effective, and accurate clinical diagnosis for early disease detection, treatment decisions, and disease prevention.
