This webinar is one of a series of activities linked to the upcoming ERS Congress theme ‘Humans and machines: getting the balance right’. The content of this webinar will complement the content of the congress programme.
COVID-19 has seriously affected numerous countries in the world from various aspects. These aspects are mainly attributed to medical conditions in terms of insufficient medical care, hospital capacity overload, personnel shortage for primary care assessment & treatment, etc. Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays an important role in medical assessment, imaging, epidemic prediction, epidemiology spread, treatment development and telemedicine particularly in primary care. This webinar will provide data and personal experience in terms of AI and COVID 19 pandemic and also could raise several points for future pandemic and endemic spreads.
Educational aims
- AI for clinical assessment (radiology, co-morbidities, drug development, algorithm)
- AI for epidemiological prediction
- AI-telemedicine for primary care medical care
Topics
- The role of AI in epidemiological prediction of future pandemics or endemic outbreaks
- AI for drug development
- Telemedicine for medical care in primary care: Lessons from Covid 19
Target audience
- Clinicians
- Trainees
- Epidemiologists
- Health professionals
Learning outcomes
Following this webinar, participants will be able to understand how AI and machines could help us in various aspects to improve either the epidemiological prediction or/and the clinical assessment in future pandemics and endemic outbreaks.

What is a webinar?
A webinar closely simulates a lecture-based teaching experience. The speaker can interact with the audience, just as in a classroom setting. During the webinar, you will be asked to share your opinion on issues related to the topic using interactive polls.
All participants will be able to hear the lecturer and see the slides throughout the presentation. As a participant you will be able to pose questions or discuss ideas with the other participants via the text chat facility and the speaker will respond to the questions via the microphone.
