02 Conference Focus
"AI and New Technologies in Public Health: Innovations and Applications" is the theme of this conference. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has experienced enormous advancements in the last few years and has begun to disseminate to many sectors of our society. AI has the potential to transform traditional public health research and education. In the meantime, other novel technologies such as simulations, natural language processing, and novel causal inference methods can all inform public health. To take advantage of these exciting technologies, this conference aims to explore the application of AI and novel technologies in public health research, education, and practices. The agenda of the conference encompasses a broad spectrum of topics, extending to, but not limited to, AI, simulation techniques, causal inference, big data, natural language processing, cost-effectiveness analysis, epidemiology, biostatistics, global health, health policy and management, health economics, aging, nutrition and wellness, chronic disease management, maternal and child health, health equity, and digital health. The conference anticipates convening approximately 300 specialists from over 15 nations, 40 international organizations, and various universities, research organizations, and governmental entities. It is designed to catalyze profound interactions among emerging scholars and serve as a significant convening for interdisciplinary discourse within public health, aiming to chart future directions for public health and preventive medicine.
