Researchers’ Night 2022: "Machines reading health data"

It analyzes X-ray images, monitors our nutrition and treats cancer. Artificial intelligence (AI) is part of modern healthcare. (Where) do humans still have the last word? On a tour, we put the hype and hopes, reservations and fears surrounding AI into a realistic perspective.

Can AI help to determine what kind of dementia your relative is suffering from or what cancer drug will help best for this patient?

Can it combat the nursing crisis by assisting nurses to take care of several patients on-demand?

And what if we managed to build powerful artificial superbrains equiped with all the features of our own brains?

Find out by visiting all our booths, e.g. "Neuro-Diseases", "Tissue Detectives", "AI in Hospital" and "Superbrain" but also "What is AI?", "Nutrition", "In the OR" and "Cancer Care".

Dive with us into the fascinating world of AI and discover our research!

Neurological diseases, surgery, cancer care, pathology, nutrition, neuroscience, clinical care assistance, ethical challenges and much more...

And what comes next? Our colleagues from the Department of Physiology will present some of the latest breakthroughs in understanding the inner workings of our brains. Can these insights be used to soon build artificial superbrains? Find out by visiting us!
