Overview

Data science and artificial intelligence are experiencing huge developments, enabling great benefits and advances in many fields. It is important for our community of respiratory experts to take advantage of these recent developments, in the clinic, in research, and in medical practice.

Educational aims

During this session, the speakers and the moderators will ensure that basic concepts such data science and artificial intelligence are made clear, that recent advancements are highlighted and most importantly, that there are clear explications of how these new technologies can have a place for every respiratory professional, regardless of their discipline.

The participants will either gain deeper understanding on the topic or learn new ways in which they can incorporate data science and artificial intelligence into their daily tasks to address respiratory issues.
