Artificial Intelligence & Medicine Symposium

The Duke Department of Medicine is excited to host a half-day Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Medicine symposium on Friday, January 17, 2025, from 1 to 4 p.m. in the Trent Semans Great Hall.

Duke Health has invested significantly in developing, evaluating and implementing AI for health at Duke and beyond. As the largest department within the School of Medicine, the Duke Department of Medicine is committed to ensuring that our faculty and trainees are connected to and understand the Duke AI vision and resources that are available to continue the work you do to move medicine forward.

The AI & Medicine symposium will be an opportunity to hear from Duke Health and DOM experts, who are at the forefront of AI in medicine, on Duke AI policy, tools, clinical and research perspectives, and more. We will also have several clinicians and researchers to present an AI Showcase.

**This event is for current Duke Faculty and Trainees only.**
