The 10th International Workshop on Health Intelligence (W3PHIAI-26) will celebrate a decade of convening researchers, clinicians, computer scientists, public health agencies, NGOs, and industry leaders at the intersection of AI and health.
This year’s theme, Foundation Models and Agentic AI in Healthcare and Medicine, will explore how large-scale pretrained models and autonomous systems are transforming clinical workflows, patient management, health system operations, and public health surveillance. The workshop aims to foster discussion on developing robust Foundation Models and AI agents that integrate multimodal health data, enhance patient engagement, support clinicians, and ensure equitable, safe, and trustworthy AI adoption in real-world settings. Building on nine highly successful W3PHIAI events, we anticipate two vibrant days of keynotes, panels, paper presentations, posters, demos, and a hackathon.
TopicsWe invite contributions in (but not limited to):
Knowledge Representation and Reasoning
Integrated and Interoperable Health Systems
Clinical Deployment and Integration
Patient-Focused Workflows
Shared Decision Making
Epidemic Intelligence and Early Outbreak Detection
Predictive Modeling and Clinical Decision Support
Biomed Ontologies, Terminologies, and Standards
