AI has transformed many areas of life in the last decade, yet the impact of these technologies on patient care is still limited.
Building on the combined expertise of MIT and MGB in AI and clinical practice, the MIT-MGB AI Cures Conference showcases ongoing collaborative projects in clinical AI, highlighting cutting-edge research and their impact on patient care. Equally important is the process for collecting the data required to train clinical AI algorithms, with a focus on privacy, diversity, and quality. Our sincere hope is that this conference will help foster new MIT-MGB collaborations and inform the public about our collective efforts to improve patient care.
