You are invited to register for the second Symposium on AI & Medicine: Promises and Limits, occurring October 20, 2022, 8:00am-1:30pm EDT / 2:00pm-7:30pm CEST.

The MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL), the MIT Institute for Medical Engineering and Science (IMES), The French National Academy of Medicine, and the Health Data Hub are jointly organizing the symposium.

Clinicians and experts at the crossroads of AI and medicine from the United States and France will come together to jointly discuss topics that can facilitate collaboration and help better understand approaches on both sides of the Atlantic. The goal is also to better understand the possibilities and realities of AI, as well as the needs of patients.

The symposium will convene in person in France, and also via live stream. Please see the event website for agenda and to register, https://www.health-data-hub.fr/2nd-symposium-mit-hdh-academie-nationale-de-mecine
