Research: Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Resilience

0:00 / 0:00

To make our research on drug shortage mitigation and prevention accessible to a broader audience, we created an AI-generated podcast. The podcast discusses our findings on pharmaceutical supply chain resilience (see the project page for a list of publications).

Additionally, the podcast provides a broad overview of our current research focus: developing a shortage mitigation system for pharmaceutical supply chains called ARIADNE. ARIADNE delivers real-time insights and actionable strategies to prevent drug shortages and enhance supply chain resilience.

This podcast offers a concise and informative discussion that captures the key themes of our research, from the root causes of pharmaceutical supply chain vulnerabilities to strategies for strengthening resilience. We hope this AI-generated podcast serves as a convenient and accessible resource for anyone interested in the topic, whether they are policymakers, healthcare professionals, or curious members of the public.


How the Podcast was created
The podcast was created using the generative AI model NotebookLM. The AI generated a conversation between two fictional podcasters, utilizing the provided materials to craft an in-depth discussion. To make the podcast engaging and natural, the model didn’t simply convert text into audio; it incorporated emphasis, interruptions, and those distinctive “ums” and “huhs” that characterize real conversations.
We supplied the model with our peer-reviewed journal articles, policy briefs, and research notes. All statements were subsequently fact-checked to ensure accuracy and relevance.
