Dear Madam/Sir,

This is to officially announce the FIRST seminar of the *"AI & Health:
Seminars 2025" *series as hosted by HC at AIxIA, i.e., the "Artificial
Intelligence for Healthcare" working group of the Italian Association for
Artificial Intelligence.

**** Save the date: 22 JANUARY 2025. 3:30 CET ****

We hope you will attend and participate in the discussion on the relevant
topics that will be presented and by our speakers.

*== October 2024 seminar ==*
*2024 January 22 - 3:30PM CET*

*Mor Peleg, PhD, *Professor of Information Systems, University of Haifa
(HAifa, Israel), EIC of Journal of Biomedical Informatics

*Title:* Current topics in AI in medicine and health informatics: current
challenges and a look ahead



*Abstract:* In this talk I will review current challenges, current work by
the biomedical informatics community, and future topics related to AI. I
draw the information from a paper[1] that a group of informatics editors
and other respected members of the community co-authored and published in
2023 in the Journal of Healthcare Informatics Research. There, we
identified focus areas that should be addressed in the next ten years,
specifically learning from new challenges that emerged in the Covid-19
epidemic.  I will also present my analysis of current and emerging topics
of papers published in the Journal of Biomedical Informatics (JBI) in the
past two years, and current calls for special issue papers. I will also
touch upon the role of international collaboration in emerging research
areas (in JBI).

*Some notes*
Serving as coordinators of the working group on AI for Healthcare of the
Italian Association of Artificial Intelligence (AIxIA, see:
https://aixia.it/en/gruppi/hc/), part of our commitment consists of
fostering contamination and collaboration between AI researchers and
experts and operators in Medicine and Healthcare; in particular, we aim to
contribute in building a two-way road for informing healthcare operators
about AI results and opportunities, while also raising awareness among AI
researchers about challenges and problems in medicine and healthcare.
Therefore, the 2025 seminar series, in the trail of the 2024 edition, will
feature a number of experts presenting research results, projects, best
practices, ideas, and more to a mixed audience of AI researchers and
healthcare operators.

*== Are you interested in Joining the group? ==*
