Algorithm of Health: AI, Ethics and the Future of Healthcare

20/05/2026–20/05/2026
6:00 PM–7:30 PM
Fritz Loewe Theatre (Mccoy Building)
Global Health Society

Join us for an insightful panel discussion and free dinner as we navigate the rapidly evolving landscape of AI and technology on Global Health.

From diagnostic algorithms to personalized treatment plans, Artificial Intelligence is no longer a futuristic concept, it is actively reshaping clinical practice. However, as we integrate these tools, we must address the profound ethical questions they raise regarding bias, privacy, and the preservation of the human touch in medicine.

Meet our panelists!
