Regenstrief informaticians joined global leaders who shared their expertise at the 8th ZIMAM Digital Health Forum November 5-6, in Dubai.
This year’s forum, “Shaping the Intelligent, Connected Digital Health Landscape,” explored how artificial intelligence (AI) and emerging technologies are transforming health systems while introducing new ethical, regulatory and workforce challenges.
