2019 China Medical AI Industry Summit Catalyzes Transformation in the Healthcare AI Sector
In the current era, artificial intelligence (AI) technology, driven by the three core elements of algorithms, computing power, and big data, is propelling development across various industries. Particularly in the healthcare sector, which is closely tied to everyone’s well-being, AI applications have expanded to cover medical imaging, assisted diagnosis, drug research and development, health management, and disease prediction. We have every reason to believe that AI will be a beacon illuminating the future of healthcare. Healthcare is poised to become one of the most promising application domains for artificial intelligence.
Hosted by Zhejiang University and co-organized by the International Cooperation and Exchange Committee of the Chinese Society for Health Information and Medical Big Data and the Zhejiang Medical Data Industry Research Association, this forum aims to “catalyze transformative changes in the medical AI industry.” It brings together distinguished leaders and experts from academia, healthcare, and industry to jointly explore the future development of medical artificial intelligence.
