Breaking Boundaries in AI and Healthcare: AI Ethics

A one-hour lunchtime keynote on the ethics of AI in healthcare, hosted by the UCD Institute for Discovery on the UCD campus in Dublin 4. The talk, "AI Ethics: Non-Negotiables for Patient Care," looks at health equity, governance, and how the patient-clinician relationship shifts as AI enters care.

The speaker is Dr. Khulood Alsayegh, Head of Clinical Standards and Guidelines at the Dubai Health Authority, trained at the Royal College of Surgeons and Harvard Medical School. She is the first certified AI Lead Ethical Assessor in healthcare in the Middle East and Africa and sits on the UAE's National Committee for AI Regulation, with two decades in clinical and regulatory leadership.

In person on campus, free, 13:00 to 14:00.

Why go: a concentrated hour on AI governance in medicine from a regulator who helps write the standards. Best for clinicians, health-tech builders and anyone working on AI assurance.
