RATIONALE PROGRAMIn the coming years artificial intelligence (AI) is expected to deeply
change the healthcare system, driven by the exploitation of big data and powerful
machine learning techniques. Technology applications are already proving to
transform clinical care and medical research, and the number of release of
newer ones is continuously growing, making AI based solutions the novel gold rush and
almost a necessity for business survival.
AI applications rely on algorithms collecting, processing and analysing healthcare data,
providing predictions or recommendations for diagnosis, therapy, health status, life style, nutrition
etc. However, the management of health related data raises regulatory, privacy, security and ethical
issues that have to be tackled properly to avoid potential hurdles in the development of AI applications.
Moreover, the inherent opaque “black-box” nature of AI techniques leads to other legal and ethical issues
i.e. quality, safety and efficiency validation, operational transparency, possible bias, legal liabilities, patentability
and intellectual property matters, patient data actual anonymization and privacy.
Within the AI4Diag project scope, these issues will be discussed during the workshop by experts in the field with the
participating companies, providing a clear overview and specific insights of data management, privacy, legal and ethical issues,
and allowing companies to identify and qualify potential pitfalls in the development of AI based applications in diagnostics and
healthcare. This will also be useful for cluster organisation to better shape dedicated services to diagnostic and medtech companies.
In the afternoon, local AI companies and research groups will present their expertise and services in a networking session, allowing
workshop attendants to verify potential collaborations and support for their business.
Workshop contributions will be broadcasted as webinar, recorded and then made available on AI4Diag website.
