A lot of my work revolves around human physiology. I think a lot of that will be improved with very accurate, high resolution, and continuous sensors. When that happens (with BioMEMS of course for most cases), AI will be able to fill in a gap, in a lot of various applications.
In the early 2010s, I was an undergraduate electrical engineering student with type 1 diabetes playing around with such models by reprogramming stuff that had been presented in peer-reviewed journal articles. I eventually programmed a closed loop control system (also known as "Artificial Pancreas System") as a spring break project to inform my insulin dosages. Mostly, it was a soul-searching project as engineering school was physically enduring for me, as I have serious health problems. I had found a paper about a sliding mode control with respect to type 1 diabetes that looked solvable to me, but I did not know if it was actually solvable. I decided to see what I could do with it, and I was successful, in 2011 and barely old enough to legally drink!
Anyways, I can assure you that while research on control systems is drying up, including for physiological systems, that the excitement is just about to begin for what you mention, starting in about 5 years.
