Join us for Research Matters, an annual event hosted by Barts Health NHS Trust in celebration of International Clinical Trials Day. This year’s theme, Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Healthcare, will highlight the groundbreaking work being done across Barts Health and Queen Mary University of London.
We’re excited to welcome Charles Gutteridge, who will provide an overview of AI to date, setting the stage for future advancements. Professors Claude Chelala and Louise Jones from Barts Cancer Institute will give an exclusive preview of a revolutionary AI platform designed to enable faster, more accurate cancer diagnoses and personalized treatments. Additionally, we’ll explore AI projects enhancing the diagnosis of rare diseases, improving cardiac imaging, and advancing patient-doctor communication in Arabic-speaking healthcare settings.
Whether you’re a healthcare professional, student, patient, or just curious about AI’s role in the future of medicine, Research Matters is for you.
