Past Events
First Emory AI Health Symposium
More than 400 people packed the Woodruff Health Sciences Administration Building Auditorium and meeting spaces for two days of panel discussions, poster sessions, and presentations focused on AI’s clinical potential in areas like health care diagnosis, genomics and pathology, as well as AI’s impact on medical privacy and security or the challenge of creating databases free of bias. The symposium perfectly showcased Emory's expertise and growing prominence, thanks to the new Emory Empathetic AI for Health Institute, also led by Dr. Madabhushi, which is part of the university's AI Humanity Initiative.
Sessions delved into leading-edge research from radiology to acute care to public health, including AI’s challenge to patient privacy. Participants also explored how AI models can aid in more precise diagnoses and ways to make Emory Healthcare patient data more widely available to investigators at Emory and its partners.
AI and Chiari-I Malformations
The lab was honored to host Sunil Manjila, MD, for a fascinating talk on AI in Chiari-I Malformation Diagnosis & Predictive Analysis on February 16, 2024. Dr. Majila is a neurosurgeon with Insight Institute of Neurosurgery & Neuroscience of McLaren Healthcare in Flint, MI.
