AI to Wearables: Humanity at the Heart of Health Care Technology

This program explores the powerful intersection between cutting-edge medical technology and the deeply human experience of illness, healing, and  care. This program invites participants to look beyond data and devices, toward the values, ethics, and emotions that make health care meaningful. Through engaging presentations and real-world examples, attendees will consider how AI, wearables, and remote monitoring can serve, not overshadow, human dignity, empathy, and storytelling in medicine. With insights from literature, philosophy, and cultural traditions, the program asks: How do we ensure that innovation enhances, rather than erodes, the human connection? Participants will walk away with a deeper understanding of both the promise and the pitfalls of tech-driven health care, and why the humanities must be at the table.
