From code to clinic: Translating AI into medical practice




Artificial Intelligence in Medicine began in 2025 as a one-day meeting for health professionals and developers exploring the integration of AI into health care. It was first organized during the 10th McMaster International Review Conference in Internal Medicine (MIRCIM), an annual event held in Kraków, Poland since 2015, and more recently also online.
The initiative was developed by McMaster University’s Department of Medicine, the Polish Institute for Evidence Based Medicine (PIEBM), Oxford Big Data Institute, and Interdisciplinary Health Data Center of the Jagiellonian University Medical College.
Today, the conference has grown into a 3-day event featuring renowned international AI experts and health professionals who share real-life experience in implementing AI in different settings.
We have selected 2 excellent lectures as a sample of what you can expect:
- Prof. Alejandro F. Frangi, University of Manchester, UK: Primum non nocere, secundum simulare! Ethical imperative of in silico evidence in the digital era
- Prof. Alex Novak, Oxford Clinical Artificial Intelligence Research, Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, UK: From concept to clinic: Bridging the healthcare AI innovation gap – observations from the OxCAIR Research group
