Beschreibung

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming essential aspects of our lives. In biomedical and clinical research, AI models are being trained to perform expert tasks in standardized and automated ways. This development raises not only medical but also ethical and legislative questions that society must address.

In this course, we will:

  1. Learn fundamental concepts of AI, machine learning, and mathematical modeling.
  2. Study applications of these technologies in biomedicine through current publications.
  3. Collaboratively develop ideas on how to address and present important and controversial topics in this field.

Students will gain comprehensive insights into the possibilities and challenges of AI in biomedicine and develop critical thinking skills regarding the societal impacts of these technologies.

Prüfungsmodalitäten

Course participants will be evaluated based on their participation and project presentation
