2022 SoCal AI & Biomedicine Symposium

Save the date!

Artificial intelligence has the potential to completely transform the healthcare industry. As noted in a recent Forbes article, "its impact promises to be truly life-changing." To realize this potential, however, researchers first must tackle a variety of challenges.

To better understand these challenges and how best to address them, UCI's Institute for Genomics (IGB) and the Donald Bren School of Information and Computer Sciences (ICS) are sponsoring the AI & Biomedicine Symposium on October 14, 2022. The all-day event, being held in the Calit2 Auditorium, opens at 10 a.m. with the talk, "Unique Analytical Challenges of Microbiome Data," by Katrine Whiteson of the Microbiome Initiative.
