AI In healthcare

Thursday 30th May 2024

Informatics Forum, School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, UK.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and embodied Robotics solutions are playing an increasing significant role in the addressing some of the most pressing grand challenges in Healthcare and Assisted Living in our society. For successful, safe and effective deployment of these fast changing technologies, it is important that we work closely and collaboratively with different stakeholders. 

In this one day workshop, we bring together end users in care homes, hospitals and rehabilitation centres;  world leading researchers from academia including European and International consortia; startup companies and established industry players in this space; as well as policy makers and researchers who look at the ethics and governance  structures that inform deployment strategies. 

This workshop will highlight the outcomes of the EU H2020 project HARMONY, talk about the new developments in Turing 2.0 with a special emphasis on the Healthcare Grand Challenge, hear from leading practitioners at The Anne Rowling Regenerative Neurology Clinic, The Cajal Institute - Spain, as well as the Advanced Care Research Centre (ACRC) and learn about the Japanese Moonshot program for the ageing society. The workshop will conclude with visits and demos at the Bayes Field Robotics labs as well as the National Robotarium

We will have a forum for interaction through our interactive poster sessions, demos from companies as well as social events at the end of the day. This event is supported by the EU H2020 Project HARMONY, The Alan Turing Institute, The National Robotarium and The Edinburgh Centre for Robotics.
