Description

Artificial Intelligence in Dermatology Research

Overview: This one day course will introduce you to the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in dermatology research and help you when critically appraising the literature in this field with an emphasis on image-based studies that are common in dermatology.  We will give examples of how AI can be used effectively in dermatological research.  By having access to published papers, you will gain insight into how to identify common errors particularly in diagnostic studies and systematic reviews that use AI.  You will also have a chance to use some basic AI to present information.

Who is it for? This interactive fun course is tailored to the needs of healthcare professionals working in dermatology.  It is suitable for anyone who needs to read or write scientific papers in this field, and present information to colleagues, management, external organisations or the general public.  No prior experience of using AI is needed.  In order to make the workshop as interactive as possible, spaces will be limited to 24.
