A jargon-free explanation of AI, machine learning, and deep learning as they apply to healthcare.
About this Event

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming healthcare, moving beyond theoretical discussions into tangible tools that reshape how clinical decisions are made. This masterclass cuts through the hype to provide frontline healthcare professionals with a practical understanding of real-world AI applications in clinical decision support. We'll delve into how AI can effectively assist with diagnosis, optimize treatment planning, and enhance predictive analytics at the bedside and beyond.

Participants will gain critical skills in interpreting AI-generated insights, understanding their strengths and limitations, and learn to integrate these tools ethically into existing patient care workflows. The focus will be on practical, actionable knowledge that empowers clinicians to leverage AI responsibly to improve patient outcomes.

Virtual Lecture Series -- Key topics covered will include:

Foundations of AI in Healthcare: A clear, jargon-free overview of relevant AI concepts (e.g., machine learning, natural language processing) and their specific uses in clinical support systems.
AI for Enhanced Diagnosis: Exploring tools that analyze medical images, laboratory results, and patient data to assist in earlier and more accurate diagnoses.
Optimizing Treatment Pathways with AI: Case studies and practical examples of AI guiding personalized treatment plans, Medic*tion management, and intervention selection.
Predictive Analytics in Practice: Understanding how AI predicts patient deterioration, readmission risks, and disease progression, enabling proactive interventions.
Interpreting AI Outputs: Developing critical thinking skills to evaluate AI recommendations, identify potential biases, and understand the "why" behind AI suggestions.
Ethical Integration and Governance: Navigating the complex ethical landscape of AI, including issues of bias, transparency, accountability, and maintaining human oversight in AI-driven care.
Practical Workflow Integration: Strategies for seamlessly incorporating AI tools into daily clinical routines and interdisciplinary team discussions.
The Clinician's Evolving Role: Discussing how AI augments, rather than replaces, clinical judgment and the future skills needed to thrive in an AI-powered healthcare environment.

This VIRTUAL masterclass will provide healthcare professionals with the confidence and competence to engage with AI in their practice, transforming them into informed and effective users of this powerful technology.
