Invited to a Panel Discussion on AI in clinical routine at LMU, Munich, Germany

I was excited to join a distinguished panel, including Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Böcker, Prof. Dr. Clemens Cyran, and Katharina Danhauser, moderated by Claus Belka, to explore AI's readiness for clinical routine. Our discussion spotlighted crucial aspects: the current state of AI in clinics and strategic placement within workflows. Emphasis was placed on robust data governance and addressing development challenges. The dialogue highlighted the importance of collaboration with stakeholders, involving regulatory bodies, and prioritizing education and training. Grateful for the opportunity to contribute to this pivotal conversation shaping the future of AI in healthcare. Thanks for the invitation, Guillaume Landry!

Participate at the International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention (MICCAI)

I stand here, my heart heavy with emotion, as I find myself struggling to focus on the incredible work and learning opportunities at the MICCAI conference in Vancouver, Canada. I hope for the day when we can attend conferences and go about our academic pursuits without the weight of such heart-wrenching events on our minds. Until then, my thoughts and prayers are with my family in Gaza and with all those who yearn for a more peaceful world.
