Abstract: 

The goal of this session is to demonstrate and learn about building end-to-end pipelines for biotechnology and healthcare applications. Artificial intelligence is poised to make radical changes in healthcare, transforming areas such as diagnosis, medical imaging, genomics, and drug discovery. Pragmatic technical implementation can have the potential to lower costs, identify more effective treatments, develop new tools and products, while driving company growth through automation and competitive advantage. In this session we will describe: The significance of data-strategy and its impact on core business goals; case studies exploring the business value and impact of transforming divisions with AI-driven methods employing deep learning; and how the final AI-framework is integrated into a company’s internal workflow. We highly encourage executives and leaders of all backgrounds to join (no AI/healthcare background necessary).
