We are happy to announce our ninth online seminar in the Biostatistics Seminar Series on Thursday, September 26th, 16h-17h

This series of Biostatistics seminars targets a broad (bio)statistical audience, in particular PhD-students. Specialists discuss a topic of their interest, paying particular attention to concepts relevant and accessible to a non-specialist audience as well.

Speaker
Wouter van Amsterdam
Assistant Professor at UMC Utrecht

Title
AI in Health Care

Abstract

What is this thing called artificial intelligence? (how) can it be used in healthcare? And what should I care as a biostatistician?

In this seminar I will introduce AI, starting with its definition and history. I’ll talk about deep learning and large-language models such as ChatGPT. Then I will detail where and how AI may be used in healthcare, contrasting it with (bio)statistics. Finally I will highlight areas of pitfalls and limitations for AI in healthcare.
