The Artificial Intelligence in Infectious Disease Workshop 2024 will be held virtually on 5-6 December 2024.
This international workshop is a novel initiative designed to foster collaboration between healthcare professionals and the artificial intelligence (AI) technology sector. It aims to bridge the gap between cutting-edge AI advancements and practical clinical applications, encouraging clinicians to step into the digital age and embrace AI to propel medicine into the future. By facilitating the exchange of knowledge through abstract and application “pitch” submissions, the workshop provides a unique platform for providers to quickly understand and adapt to the latest developments. This dynamic platform will kick-start a lasting partnership between infectious disease medicine and AI technology, ultimately enhancing patient care and improving clinical outcomes.
The workshop focuses on the effective use of AI in managing infectious diseases. Given the rapid advancements in AI and its profound current and potential impact on healthcare, the workshop is designed to be a space where researchers and medical professionals can discuss and collaborate on translating research findings into clinical practice. Additionally, the event aims to address the associated risks and opportunities of implementing AI in infectious disease management, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the technology’s potential and its challenges. By emphasizing human-machine teaming, the workshop seeks to augment the practice style of clinicians, not replace their clinical decision-making.
