AI Meets Life Science and Biotech Symposium

The symposium will explore modern AI and machine learning as drivers for scientific discovery and far-reaching applications within life science, health science and biotech. Crucial in this transformation is the ability to extract meaningful associations and causalities from messy real-world data – a paradigm shift from more traditional data analysis. In this workshop we take a snapshot look at how modern machine learning and AI currently transform areas like medical research and clinical practice.
