Since 2021, this event has brought together pioneers from across technology, healthcare, and regulations to discuss how AI can be deployed safely and with positive impact in medical settings. This event is suitable for researchers, HealthTech innovators, policymakers, clinicians, investors, or anyone interested in the evolving role of AI in health. Through talks and interactive discussions, attendees will engage with the latest thinking on innovation, regulation, safety and real-world implementation of AI in health.
As Professor Aldo Faisal, Director of the AI for Healthcare Centres, explains: “To really create positive impact with AI for healthcare, we must focus on rigorous science, thoughtful regulation, and collaboration across disciplines.”
