At a time when artificial intelligence is reshaping medical practice and biomedical research, this conference aims to explore in depth the opportunities, challenges and future directions of these technologies. Participants will be able to discover the latest scientific advances, emerging tools, regulatory frameworks and major trends shaping the development of AI in medicine.
The programme will cover, among other topics:
- Medical imaging and AI-assisted diagnosis.
- Drug discovery and repurposing through AI.
- Ethics of AI in healthcare.
- Equity of care with AI.
- Digital twins in medicine.
- Integration of AI into clinical practice.
- Medical robotics and wearable devices.
- Next-generation multimodal and agentic systems.

Encouraging international dialogue and collaboration
The event will give participants the opportunity to engage directly with editors from the journal Nature during a dedicated session. This will be a valuable opportunity to gain a better understanding of the editorial expectations of major international scientific journals and to discuss publication issues in a context where AI is also transforming research practices.
Beyond the scientific sessions, the conference will place strong emphasis on dialogue across disciplines and the development of new collaborations. Two poster sessions, organised around a convivial French-style “wine and cheese” gathering, will allow researchers to present abstract-selected work in an informal setting conducive to discussion.
On this occasion, the PITOR Institute is encouraging Université Paris Cité research teams to submit their work. Late-breaking submissions are open until 19 June 2026 >>>
PITOR’s ambition is to ensure strong representation of French research at this exceptional event and to offer researchers and clinicians the opportunity to showcase their work to a leading international audience.
A key event of the new academic year
By bringing together global leaders and fostering interdisciplinary exchange, this first edition promises to be one of the major scientific events of the new academic year, offering a collective opportunity to reflect on the future of artificial intelligence in medicine.
