Join healthcare innovators for Mayo Clinic’s annual AI Research Summit on June 4–5 in Rochester, Minnesota. This premier conference brings together leading experts to explore advances in artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare, share emerging methods and best practices, and discover new collaborations. A virtual attendance option is also available.
This year’s summit will highlight multi-agent modeling and simulation as a new approach for generating real-world evidence.
“At Mayo Clinic, we are leading the development of AI methods — such as multi‑agent systems and simulation — that allow us to model complex patient scenarios and generate rigorous evidence far faster than traditional approaches,” says Dr. Cui Tao, the Nancy Peretsman and Robert Scully Chair of Artificial Intelligence and Informatics at Mayo Clinic.
“These tools are helping us compress what once took years of trials and discovery into months, enabling trustworthy AI solutions that support better decisions and accelerate cures. This year’s summit brings together researchers, data scientists, students and clinicians to drive this progress, and we are pleased to partner with our colleagues who help move scientific advances into practice,” Dr. Tao says.
The program will explore topics such as multi-agent clinical intelligence, simulation, virtual twins and multimodal foundation models. Sessions will also focus on translating AI research into clinical practice and building trustworthy, governable systems.
The event’s keynote speakers are:
- Yong Chen, Ph.D., director of the Center for Health AI and Synthesis of Evidence at the Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania
- Peter Lee, Ph.D., president of Microsoft Research and Mayo Clinic TrusteeTrustee
- Micky Tripathi, Ph.D., chief AI implementation officer at Mayo Clinic Mayo Clinic
- Yi Qian, vice president of Global Real-World Evidence at Johnson & Johnson
