Substantive, high-impact AI in healthcare

Healthcare track

Healthcare does not need another generic AI overview. This track goes after the difficult questions: what the data infrastructure actually has to look like, what reaches the patient, what the evidence says, and what is still unresolved at the research frontier.

📅 November 13, 2026 📍 UMCG · Rode Zaal, Groningen
About the track

The hard questions, not the tour.

This track is aimed at clinicians, researchers, healthcare executives, regulators and AI practitioners — an audience that can handle, and wants, substance.

The programme is built in three movements: foundations and data infrastructure; clinical AI and patient impact; and research frontiers and emerging topics. Speakers include clinicians, researchers, executives, regulators, implementation leads and health-data specialists.

Seven sessions in aiGrunn's central 3-2-2 day format, hosted at the UMCG.
