Have you ever wondered which areas of healthcare could be improved with AI? Can you use it to diagnose cancer? Could an AI chatbot tell you what you need to do to get better? Will the doctors of the future be robots?

Come along to this Question Time style event for your chance to pose your burning questions around AI and healthcare to a panel of experts, including doctors and healthcare researchers. You’ll have the chance to submit your questions in advance of the event.

You do not need any prior knowledge of AI to enjoy this event.
