Imagine an AI algorithm analyzing a chest X-ray. In seconds, it flags a tiny, ambiguous shadow—a potential cancerous nodule—that might be overlooked by the human eye during a busy day. For the patient, this isn't just data processing; it's a life-saving early diagnosis.

This scenario is no longer science fiction. It is a powerful, real-world example of the revolution happening at the intersection of healthcare and artificial intelligence. This lecture will serve as your introduction to this transformative field, exploring how data from wearables, electronic health records (EHRs), and genomics is being harnessed by intelligent systems to make healthcare more predictive, personalized, and proactive. 🩺💻

Key Topics We'll Cover In this LIVE Session:

The Digital Health Data Explosion: We'll examine the sources of modern health data, from the heart rate on your smartwatch (e.g.,photoplethysmography) to vast clinical datasets in EHRs.
AI in Action: Discover real-world applications beyond the hype, including AI-driven diagnostics in radiology and pathology, predictive models for disease outbreaks, and accelerated drug discovery.
The Dawn of Personalized Medicine: Understand how machine learning models can create customized treatment plans and wellness recommendations based on an individual's unique genetic, lifestyle, and environmental factors.
Ethical Frontiers & Challenges: We will confront the critical challenges facing this new era, including data privacy, algorithmic bias, patient consent, and the regulatory hurdles for deploying AI in clinical settings.
The Future Patient Journey: A forward-looking discussion on what to expect next, from AI-powered virtual health assistants to the future of preventative, continuous care. 🚀

Who Should Attend?

This LIVE lecture is designed for a broad audience, including students in health sciences and computer science, healthcare professionals, technology enthusiasts, hospital administrators, and anyone interested in the future of medicine and technology. No prior expertise in AI is required.
