AI Discussion at International Medical Conference Presented by Sbarro Health Research Organization

Top Italian Scientists join the discussion of AI and Machine Learning presented by the Sbarro Health Research Organization (SHRO) in collaboration with the National Italian American Foundation (NIA) this weekend at the annual NIAF convention and gala. The event will cover the use of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning algorithms in cancer diagnosis, therapy, and  medicine is rapidly being adopted in the clinical setting. Currently, these technologies are making an  immediate impact on our ability to correctly detect, diagnose, and treat diseases like cancer, heart  disease, and even infertility, improving patient’s lives. This symposium will feature how expert Italian  and Italian/American clinicians are using AI and machine learning in their medical practices, and what  future advances in this technology will mean for your healthcare.
