REGISTRATION 

Join us for a forum on artificial intelligence and its consequences for health systems in low- and middle-income countries. Mark Dredze of the Johns Hopkins University AI-X Foundry will provide opening remarks on how AI is changing public health, followed by a panel discussion of experts from the Department of International Health in the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Health, who will reflect on how AI might change health systems in LMICs and the ethical and legal implications of implementing AI in those settings. The forum will allow for time after the panel reflections for an open discussion.

Participants include:

  • Speaker: Mark Dredze, PhD, John C. Malone Professor of Computer Science, Johns Hopkins Whiting School of Engineering and Director of Research, JHU AI-X Foundry
  • Panelist: Smisha Agarwal, PhD, Associate Professor, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health
