DSI Spring Research Workshop 2025
Health AI Institute & UMN Data Science Initiative Announce the AI Spring Summit (Health AI Summit & DSI Spring Research Workshop 2025) at the Humphrey School of Public Affairs
A Premier Gathering of Leaders in Healthcare, Technology, and Policy to Shape the Future of AI in Healthcare – June 10-12, 2025
The Health AI Institute (HAI), in collaboration with the Data Science Initiative (DSI) at the University of Minnesota, is excited to present the inaugural Summit on Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare from June 10–12, 2025, at the Humphrey School of Public Affairs, University of Minnesota.
Why This Summit?
The healthcare and life sciences ecosystem is at a pivotal moment. The grand challenge for industry leaders is not just adopting AI but strategically positioning their organizations to better serve patients, optimize operations, and shape the future of healthcare in the Age of AI.
Every day, new AI-driven tools and solutions emerge, introduced by both established players and new innovators. However, the speed of change and the full impact of AI on business processes, workforce readiness, and policy development remain uncertain. Healthcare leaders must anticipate these shifts, understand the risks, and leverage AI responsibly to enhance decision-making and patient outcomes.
The Health AI Summit 2025 will serve as a nonpartisan, interdisciplinary platform where key stakeholders can engage in meaningful discussions, explore real-world applications, tackle pressing challenges, and collaborate on AI-driven solutions that will define the next era of healthcare.
What to Expect
This day and a half (June 10-11) summit will feature dynamic discussions, expert-led panels, and strategic networking opportunities. It will bring together healthcare leaders, policymakers, AI researchers, technology innovators, venture capitalists, payers, providers, and academics to address key themes, including:
- AI for Clinical Care Delivery – Enhancing diagnostic accuracy, decision support, and reducing clinician cognitive burden.
- AI for Operational Efficiency & Resource Optimization – Leveraging AI to streamline workflows, reduce costs, and improve healthcare logistics.
- Emerging AI Technologies in Healthcare – Exploring cutting-edge AI advancements, their opportunities, risks, and ethical implications.
- Healthy America in the Age of AI – Addressing AI’s role in public health, population health management, and equitable healthcare access.
- Early-Stage Companies in Health AI – Showcasing startups, investment opportunities, and innovations shaping the future of AI-driven healthcare.
Stay for a third day and a half (June 11-12) and hear experts from the UMN and beyond discuss AI Governance, Ethics, and how that affects AI use in practical applications at the DSI’s Spring Research Workshop.
