We are Training Inter-Disciplinary Scientists to Innovate in Biomedical Artificial Intelligence Research
The greatest challenge to realising the potential of artificial intelligence in the biomedical domain is its translation into real-world use. We have co-created an AI Centre for Doctoral Training in Biomedical Innovation (AI4BI) to produce inter-disciplinary researchers with both technical skills and domain knowledge, and with experience delivering innovation into the public and private sectors.
