"Health and the promise of Artificial Intelligence"

Location: Grand Mill Quay (the sandy coloured Google building), Barrow St. the reception entrance is down by the water. Artificial Intelligence is set to transform the Digital Health ecosystem across a variety of fronts including creating and validating novel digital clinical endpoints, empowering the decision making ability of clinicians, profiling patients for particular treatments or trials, distinguishing between sub-types of diseases, developing patient-facing applications and improving clinician workflow.
