AI for Digital Health and Personalized Medicine. June 23, 2022 - Ensanche Building, Bilbao

Description of the event:

Thanks to the digitization of health, it is possible to analyze patient data that allows each diagnosis and treatment to be personalized to obtain beneficial results for their health. Mathematical/computational models based on Artificial Intelligence (AI), transferred to clinical decision support systems, enable this transformation, and also allow predicting the behavior of diseases based on the data obtained. In this way it is possible, for example, to anticipate the predisposition or risk of a person to suffer a certain disease and take actions aimed at preventing said diseases. AI models are part of the new generation of Digital Diagnostic systems and enable the acceleration of biomedical research in Personalized or Precision Medicine. In this conference we will bring AI solutions in Digital Health and Personalized Medicine closer to companies and we will present different applications through success stories.

General purpose:

To present realities and prospecting to help identify opportunities for the application of Artificial Intelligence in Digital Health and Personalized Medicine for both Companies and Health Institutions and Administrations.

Addressed to:

Managers, technical, innovation, or service managers of Companies, health professionals and managers of Health Institutions and public policies interested in the application of AI in Digital Health and in the development of new products and services related to Personalized and Precision Medicine
