Royal Marsden, NTT DATA and CARPL.ai partner to launch AI-Powered Radiology service
London: The
Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust
has partnered with NTT DATA and CARPL.ai to develop an
AI-powered radiology
analysis service aimed at advancing
cancer research
.
The service will support the development and evaluation of artificial intelligence (AI) models in medical imaging, with the goal of improving
diagnostic accuracy
and
patient outcomes
.
Funded by a three-year grant from the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR), the service will be used in research at The Royal Marsden and the Institute of Cancer Research (ICR), including collaborative projects.
Areas of focus include cancers such as sarcoma, lung, breast, brain, and prostate, with the aim of improving
cancer evaluation
and enabling more targeted treatments.
The service runs on an MLOps clinical imaging system built and operated by NTT DATA. It includes high-performance Dell servers and GPU processing capabilities managed through CARPL.ai, which hosts a wide range of radiology AI models.
NTT DATA is also providing consulting services to support testing and evaluation of emerging AI tools in real clinical settings.
It is indicated that once the service becomes operational, research teams at The Royal Marsden will use it to assess a variety of AI models across different cancer types.
The studies are expected to provide data on how AI tools may contribute to clinical decision-making and inform future diagnostic and treatment approaches.
The service includes tools that allow researchers to observe model performance over time, helping to streamline the development and evaluation process.
NTT DATA will continue its collaboration with The Royal Marsden to support ongoing research activities.

Taiwan's 50 Richest 2025: Strong Demand For Chips Helps Drive Double-Digit Growth In Wealth To Record High
Daniel Tsai. This story is part of Forbes' coverage of Taiwan's Richest 2025. See the full list here. Taiwan's thriving semiconductor industry continues to boost its economy, which grew at an annual rate of 4.6% in 2024, the highest in three years. Despite the jolt from U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff threats, which left the benchmark Taiex index up only slightly since we last measured fortunes, the rising New Taiwan dollar powered a 13% increase in the combined wealth of Taiwan's 50 richest to $197 billion from $174 billion last year. ss A total of 36 listees are more well-off in this round, resulting in a shuffle in the top ranks. Siblings Daniel & Richard Tsai were the biggest dollar gainers with a $3.2 billion boost, which took their wealth to $13.9 billion and earned them the No. 1 spot after a year's gap. Shares of their Fubon Financial Holding jumped 16% from last year, thanks partly to its expanding banking operations. Quanta Computer chairman Barry Lam, who was last year's richest, slipped to second place, despite an 8% uptick in his net worth to $12.6 billion. In February, the maker of laptops and AI servers teamed up with American quantum processing firm Rigetti Computing to develop superconducting quantum computing technology. Brothers Tsai Hong-tu & Cheng-ta of Cathay Financial Holdings, cousins of Daniel and Richard, climbed two places to No. 3, with $10.9 billion. In November, a wind power unit of their group's insurance arm agreed to invest $1.65 billion for a 50% stake in an offshore wind farm in Taiwan, to be constructed and run by Danish energy company Ørsted. Siblings Jeffrey Koo Jr. and Angelo Koo, who own stakes in CTBC Financial Holding and KGI Financial Holding, respectively, are the biggest gainers in percentage terms. Their separately listed fortunes more than doubled to $4.7 billion and $3.3 billion, thanks partly to new information about their holdings. There are three newcomers this year, including two minted from the red-hot sector of AI servers: Lin Tsung-Chi, founder and chairman of King Slide, a maker of rails for servers, enters the ranks with $2.9 billion; brothers Chao Chung-Hsin & Yung-Tsang join the list as their Jentech Precision Industrial, a supplier of semiconductor cooling components, reaped the benefits of the frenzied AI data center buildout. The third new entrant is Chang Chung-Hsing, founder and chairman of Apex Dynamics, which supplies gearboxes for products such as industrial robots. The net worth of footwear magnate Zhang Congyuan, who was Taiwan's richest person three years ago, shrank by $1.8 billion to $8.3 billion, registering the biggest decline in dollar terms. Shares of his Guangdong-based Huali Industrial Group fell by more than a fifth amid U.S. tariff threats. Four listees from last year dropped off. Notable among these are brothers William & Wilfred Wang, whose fortune drawn from Formosa Plastics Group was impacted by global headwinds in the chemicals sector. The minimum net worth to make the list rose to $1.3 billion from $1.1 billion last year. Full Coverage of Taiwan's Richest 2025: Editing assistance by Phisanu Phromchanya. Reporting by Shu-Ching Jean Chen, Gloria Haraito, Enyi Hu, Shanshan Kao, Chengbo Liu, Catherine Wang and Yue Wang. Methodology: The list was compiled using information from individuals, analysts, government agencies, stock exchanges, databases and other sources. Net worths were based on stock prices and exchange rates as of the close of markets on May 9 and real-time net worths on may reflect different valuations. The ranking lists both individual and family fortunes, including those shared among relatives. Private companies were valued by using financial ratios and other comparisons with similar companies that are publicly traded. The list can also include foreign citizens with business, residential or other ties to Taiwan, or citizens who don't reside in Taiwan but have significant business or other ties. The editors reserve the right to amend any information or remove any listees in light of new information.

"An unwarranted betrayal": Karine Jean-Pierre leaves Democratic Party, announces new book
Karine Jean-Pierre has left the Democratic Party. The former press secretary announced her decision on Wednesday, along with the news of her upcoming book, "Independent." "Until January 20, I was responsible for speaking on behalf of the President of the United States," Jean-Pierre said in a statement. "At noon that day, I became a private citizen who, like all Americans and many of our allies around the world, had to contend with what was to come next for our country. I determined that the danger we face as a country requires freeing ourselves of boxes." Set to release on October 21, the book's subtitle promises a "look inside a broken White House" and hints at a defense of the Biden administration. In a description from the publisher, Democratic Party pressure to force Biden to end his campaign is painted as a "betrayal." The description goes on to call the book a guide to carving out "a political space more loyal to personal beliefs than a party affiliation." Jean-Pierre's book will follow Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson into the suddenly crowded market of post-mortems on Biden's single term in the Oval Office. Her departure-cum-book announcement drew mockery from her former colleagues, who called it a "joke" and a "grift." "She made a joke about being an independent last year, and now it's a book," an anonymous former White House staffer told Politico. "All ideas are monetary, even the dumb ones."Democratic strategist Caitlin Legacki pushed back against KJP while speaking to the outlet, saying that Biden and Harris did "hero's work" in preventing a Republican supermajority in Congress. "It's more productive to focus on that, and thank Biden for doing the responsible thing by stepping aside, than it is to pretend this was an unwarranted act of betrayal," she said.

Clemson, ACC officially dismiss dueling lawsuits after months of litigation
CLEMSON — Clemson's lawsuit against the Atlantic Coast Conference is officially over after nearly a year of legal battles between the school and the conference in South Carolina and North Carolina. On June 3, Clemson filed a stipulation of dismissal with prejudice in Pickens County, South Carolina. The ACC filed a notice of voluntary dismissal with prejudice in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, on the same day. Florida State's lawyers filed to dismiss the case in Leon County, Florida, too. Advertisement Clemson and Florida State sued the ACC over their grant-of-rights agreements and withdrawal penalty, which was initially seen as the first legal step to departing the league. The conference sued them both. Neither Clemson nor FSU officially declared that they were intending to leave the conference during the legal battle. After a year-plus legal fight between the schools and the conference, all agreed to settle their disputes in March. Clemson hired four law firms during the lawsuit and paid a total of $2.04 million for over 3,300 hours of work. The settlement framework revolved around the ACC's enabling a new revenue distribution model that will reward performance and media value by viewership. The model will go into effect in the upcoming year, and Clemson anticipates it can generate $120 million in new revenue during the next six years based on the model and the conference's ACC success initiatives. Additionally, the exit cost to leave the conference will be lowered. The current ACC exit fee is $165 million for the 2026 fiscal year, but it will drop by $18 million year over year before it becomes a flat $75 million fee by the 2030-31 season. Any school that pays the withdrawal fee will leave with its media rights. Advertisement MORE: Why Clemson is set up to leave the ACC in the next decade after settlement of dueling lawsuits This will be around the same time when TV deals for the Big Ten (2029-30), Big 12 (2030) and the College Football Playoff (2031) will be up for renewal. Clemson will have the flexibility to determine its next move amid these changes to remain in the ACC, try to join a new conference or for its football program to join a potential super league.
