Artificial Intelligence to Accelerate Discovery
Join us for the Virtual Workshop organized by the Friends of the National Library of Medicine (FNLM) to be held Wednesday, April 21, 2021 online, 11:00 am – 1:00 pm EDT.
Artificial Intelligence to Accelerate Discovery
April 21, 2021 online, 11:00 am – 1:00 pm EDT.
Artificial intelligence and machine learning are increasingly used to design biomedical experiments, to support patient care, to make discovery processes more efficient and to improve the research infrastructure.
Meanwhile, emerging challenges have to be addressed: technical trends and expectations, transparency of methods, reproducibility of results, ethics and fairness in influencing decisions, broadening access to AI technologies, and the need for retooling researchers. A recent report by the National Academy of Medicine (NAM) highlights the need for responsible AI development, more attention to augmented intelligence, and effective implementation in health care.
Goals
The Virtual Workshop will explore ways to accelerate biomedical research with the application of artificial intelligence methods and improve responsiveness to existing and emerging public health needs. It will identify positive strategies to achieve trustworthy results, greater productivity, responsible practices, and significant quality improvement in research studies.
