AGENDA

1. How to Futureproof Your Healthcare Practice with AI (Introduction & Key Trends)

Hear the latest trends and statistics on AI adoption in healthcare (e.g. nearly 50% of providers plan to use AI soon) and see how AI tools have exploded onto the scene.

Key takeaway: Understand the potential benefits of AI and how to embrace AI to “future-proof” your practice in nutrition, fitness or clinical care.

2. How to Personalise Nutrition and Fitness Plans with AI (Live Demo)

Learn how dietitians and fitness coaches can use AI to tailor plans to individual needs. We’ll demonstrate, live, how to create a personalised meal plan and workout regimen based on a client’s sample data.

Discover AI-powered apps already boosting outcomes in this space. We’ll show how these tools provide practical, real-world assistance in meal planning, calorie tracking, exercise programming and client communication.

Interactive demo: Attendees will see a live walk-through as we input sample client goals into an AI tool. Watch how AI instantly customises a diet and exercise plan, much like you can use in your own practice. Questions and reactions are encouraged throughout this demo segment!

Key takeaway: Gain firsthand experience of AI’s ability to deliver hyper-personalised nutrition and fitness guidance, helping you save time on planning and achieve better client outcomes.

3. How to Streamline Clinical Work and Diagnostics with AI (Live Demo)

AI in clinical practice: See how AI can automate routine tasks and enhance decision-making in healthcare settings. We’ll explore examples like AI-assisted medical charting, symptom checkers and diagnostic image analysis that can speed up your workflow and improve accuracy.

Interactive demo: Experience a live demonstration of an AI tool analysing patient data. For instance, we’ll show an AI-driven early warning system processing vitals and notes to flag a sepsis risk – illustrating how AI can catch critical conditions hours earlier than traditional methods. (One hospital’s AI system cut sepsis mortality by 20% by catching symptoms sooner). We’ll also demo a voice-to-text AI assistant that transcribes a doctor–patient conversation into a structured clinical note, showing how documentation can be done in minutes.

Key takeaway: Understand how to integrate AI into clinical workflows safely and effectively. By the end, you’ll see how AI can reduce paperwork, alert you to hidden risks and support clinical decisions – so you can focus more on patient and client care.

4. Your Medical Research with AI (Live Demo)

Find the right studies in seconds: Stop wasting hours searching through endless research papers – AI can do it for you! Learn how AI-powered research assistants can instantly summarise and rank medical studies based on relevance and credibility.

Interactive demo: Watch AI scan thousands of articles to extract key takeaways on a medical topic. See how AI finds patterns, highlights knowledge gaps and suggests follow-up research questions – giving you an instant knowledge boost.

Fact-check like a pro: AI can summarise medical studies, but can you trust it? Learn how to verify AI-generated insights by cross-referencing peer-reviewed sources, using citation-based tools and avoiding common AI hallucination pitfalls.

Key takeaway: Stay ahead of the latest clinical guidelines and medical advancements without drowning in research papers. By the end of this session, you’ll know how to use AI to quickly find, summarise, and validate cutting-edge medical studies – ensuring your practice stays evidence-based.

5. How to Navigate AI Ethics and Regulations in Healthcare

Ethical best practices: As AI becomes more prevalent, understanding the ethical implications is crucial. In this segment, we tackle questions of privacy, safety, and responsibility. Learn how to safely use AI while protecting patient data and trust. We’ll cover privacy laws and why data security is non-negotiable when using AI tools with sensitive health information.

Bias and fairness: We discuss the risk of biases in AI algorithms and strategies to mitigate bias and ensure equitable care will be shared.

Transparency and accountability: We’ll explain the importance of AI transparency and getting insight into how an algorithm makes decisions. If an AI recommends a treatment, how do you validate its reasoning?

Key takeaway: Develop a roadmap for ethical AI adoption. You’ll learn risk-mitigation best practices and leave confident in harnessing AI in a responsible, patient-centric way that complies with healthcare regulations and ethical standards.
