From Virtual Assessments to Virtual Exercise: How AI is Tailoring Chronic Disease Prevention and Care

17 April 2024

Join Prof Wang Wenru, Asst Prof Jiang Ying, and experts from various institutions in this webinar on 27 April 2024 from 09:30 – 11:00 am to learn more about digital health in chronic disease management.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing chronic disease prevention and care by transforming traditional approaches, making them more efficient, personalized and predictive. With AI’s ability to analyse vast amounts of data quickly, it can identify patterns and insights in medical data that might be missed by clinicians. AI-driven predictive models are being used to forecast disease progression and potential complications, allowing clinicians to intervene proactively in management of chronic diseases. Moreover, personalised treatment through AI not only improves medical outcomes but also enhances engagement and adherence. However, the implementation of AI in chronic disease management also presents challenges, including ensuring data privacy, managing the cost of AI technologies and the potential for AI to perpetuate biases. This webinar provides a comprehensive overview of the latest advancements in digital health in varying populations and aims to stimulate discussion on the current and future direction of digital health in chronic disease management.
