Title: The Quantum Leap: AI and Telemedicine Unveiling the Next Frontier in Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Abstract: This conference explores the transformative intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Telemedicine in the realm of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (allo-HCT), heralding a new era in healthcare. The discussion delves into the potential of these advanced technologies to reshape the landscape of allo-HCT, promising enhanced accessibility, efficiency, and patient outcomes. The conference begins by examining how AI algorithms are revolutionizing donor matching processes and patient assessments, refining the selection of recipients and minimizing complications. Furthermore, the integration of telemedicine platforms facilitates remote patient monitoring, enabling real-time tracking of vital health indicators and facilitating timely interventions. As AI and telemedicine converge to reshape the landscape of allo-HSCT, this discussion serves as a pivotal exploration into the advantages and limits of this transformative journey.

Short Bio: Alberto Mussetti MD, works at the Hematology Department at Institut Català d'Oncologia (Barcelona, Spain) as Director of the Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation and Cell Therapy Unit. During the last years his research has been focused on lymphoid malignancies, allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant and digital medicine. He previously worked at Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori (Milan, Italy)and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center of New York.

Real AI 2024 - Sept 27th BCS-SGAI

Real Artificial Intelligence 2024

A special event showcasing
Practical Applications of Artificial Intelligence

Friday 27th September 2024

At the BCS London Office
Ground Floor, 25 Copthall Avenue, London, EC2R 7BP
(near Moorgate underground)

Organised by BCS-SGAI




BCS-SGAI, the British Computer Society Specialist Group on Artificial Intelligence, is the organiser of one of the longest running annual series of AI conferences in Europe: the AI-20xx series. In 
recent years we have seen a rise in popularity of one aspect of the conference: the industry case studies. These have presented AI as it is actually implemented out there in the real world, with all the triumphs and challenges that brings. 

Building on this success, we are pleased to present Real Artificial Intelligence, a series of meetings showcasing practical applications of AI.

We have aimed the event less at deep AI specialists and more at those who may be interested in understanding what AI can offer, and what it is doing right now. The event will feature talks from leading exponents and case studies outlining practical applications of AI from a wide range of application domains. Plenty of time has been allowed in the programme for discussion.

We hope that you will come and join us, and that you enjoy this new offering from the BCS SGAI.
