From July 3 to 5, the prestigious Portuguese Science Summit Ciência 2024 was held at the Alfândega do Porto Congress Centre in Porto, serving as a hub for the discussions of science, health, and technology. This summit brings together scientists, professors, and healthcare professionals from national and international science communities annually. This year, the summit explored the theme “+Science for Health and Global Well-Being”, AI4LUNGS is honoured to be part of it, and to present our mission and vision of using AI in the health sector.
Technology in Healthcare- Dialogues for a Better Future
The event ignited meaningful dialogues, knowledge exchange, and collaboration. AI4LUNGS presented how the project is revolutionising healthcare through AI during the session, “Smart Care: The Bridge Between AI and Health Systems According to the Advances Made at INESC” presented by our project coordinator, Helder Oliveira from INESC TEC.
Helder showcased the healthcare solutions and integrating cutting-edge AI technology into health systems AI4LUNGS is developing. Indeed, in this time and age where AI is benefitting many aspects of human life, integrating correctly and carefully into healthcare would definitely bring in a positive impact to hundreds of thousands of people across the world.
AI4LUNGS focused on lung diseases, aiming at using AI to increase diagnostic efficiency, giving patients a more personalised treatment while protecting the GDPR and privacy. We are grateful to be part of this community, transforming healthcare for the better.
Thank you for the Portuguese Science Summit for giving us a stage to present our mission and to learn from other innovative projects and experts. Together, we strive to make a long lasting impact for the world!
