About this Program
The Artificial Intelligence in Infectious Disease Workshop 2024 will be held on 7- 8 November 2024 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
This international workshop is a novel initiative designed to foster collaboration between healthcare professionals and the artificial intelligence (AI) technology sector. It aims to bridge the gap between cutting-edge AI advancements and practical clinical applications, encouraging clinicians to step into the digital age and embrace AI to propel medicine into the future. By facilitating the exchange of knowledge through abstract and application "pitch" submissions, the workshop provides a unique platform for providers to quickly understand and adapt to the latest developments. This dynamic platform will kick-start a lasting partnership between infectious disease medicine and AI technology, ultimately enhancing patient care and improving clinical outcomes.
The workshop focuses on the effective use of AI in managing infectious diseases. Given the rapid advancements in AI and its profound current and potential impact on healthcare, the workshop is designed to be a space where researchers and medical professionals can discuss and collaborate on translating research findings into clinical practice. Additionally, the event aims to address the associated risks and opportunities of implementing AI in infectious disease management, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the technology's potential and its challenges. By emphasizing human-machine teaming, the workshop seeks to augment the practice style of clinicians, not replace their clinical decision-making.
This revolutionary workshop aims to accelerate research, improve clinical care, and build lasting collaborations. It will not only advance the integration of AI into infectious disease medicine but also pave the way for future innovations in patient care. By bringing together experts from both the AI and medical fields, the workshop will serve as a catalyst for breakthroughs that can transform the landscape of healthcare, making it more efficient, effective, and responsive to emerging challenges.

General Guidelines
Abstracts should contain the following four components:
- Background: A concise statement of the issue under investigation or a hypothesis;
- Material and Methods: The experimental methods used (including the statistical analyses employed);
- Results: Specific findings (promises such as "to be completed" or "to be presented" are not acceptable);
- Conclusions: A summary of findings that are supported by your results (statistical analyses used to support the conclusions, where appropriate, should be included; concluding statements such as "the results will be discussed" are not acceptable).
Please note that abstracts cannot be accepted if tables or graphs are included. The maximum word count for the abstract body is 500 words.
Abstracts are considered official communications to the conference and will be treated confidentially. Submitters of accepted abstracts agree to attend the meeting and present their abstract as scheduled.
We encourage you to use person-first language in your abstract(s). View our guidelines here: https://academicmedicaleducation.com/person-first-language
