Description
The growing integration of AI in healthcare presents challenges for medical professionals lacking AI knowledge, limiting their engagement with AI tools in Pakistan (Abernethy et al., 2022; Umer et al., 2024). Without addressing this gap, they risk missing out on AI-driven benefits like improved diagnostics and personalized care (Silcox et al., 2024).
Objectives: The AI4Doctors workshop was proposed to:
1) Provide a structured introduction to AI for participants with limited exposure.
2) Build intuition around machine learning models and medical AI datasets.
3) Offer hands-on experience in developing and evaluating simple AI models.
