Artificial intelligence is rapidly re-shapeing the landscape of healthcare and biomedical research, prompting bioethics to evolve in response. In this talk, Dr. Effy Vayena discussed how AI introduces novel ethical challenges, urging bioethicists to broaden their scope of inquiry and adapt their methodological approaches.

By exploring the shifts that AI brings in bioethics, she shed light on the opportunities that lie ahead for the field of bioethics and in return the role it can play in guiding responsible innovation and, ultimately, more compassionate and equitable healthcare

β€œIt was an honor to share my work with such a distinguished audience and humbling to follow in the footsteps of so many of my intellectual heroes.”
