Governing the Real World Application of Medical AI

(Activity supported by the Academy)

The University of Hong Kong Centre for Medical Ethics and Law will organise a conference titled ‘Governing the Real World Application of Medical AI’ on 15-16 November 2024.

This conference will examine the matter from legal and ethical perspectives and consider developments in other jurisdictions, in particular, the newly enacted regimes of the EU AI Act and the European Health Data Space, as well as their relevance to Hong Kong, with an aim at exploring how best to develop an appropriate governance framework in Hong Kong in relation to the adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies in healthcare.

There will be sharing on the regulatory context of AI in healthcare in Hong Kong and other jurisdictions, in particular, the European Union (EU).

It is hoped that the exchange and sharing of experience at the conference will shed light on the measures (e.g. guidelines, regulation, legislation) that may serve as a helpful reference for developing measures in meeting the multitude of challenges arising from AI in healthcare in Hong Kong.

Sessions on Day 1 (15 November) are for presentations and deliberations by invited delegates only.

Session on Day 2 (16 November) is open for general registration and will begin with a summary of the discussions on Day 1.
