Scientific Sessions

This session explores the transformative impact of digital technologies, artificial intelligence (AI), and data-driven solutions on modern public health practice. As global health challenges become increasingly complex, digital innovation plays a critical role in strengthening surveillance, improving health equity, and enabling faster, more precise public health interventions. Key topics include digital disease surveillance platforms, AI-driven predictive modeling, mobile health (mHealth) applications, telehealth for population outreach, digital contact tracing, real-time data analytics, and the integration of wearable devices for public health monitoring. The session will also examine digital health governance, data privacy and security, ethical considerations in AI deployment, and strategies for bridging digital divides in underserved communities. Participants will gain insights into designing and implementing technology-enabled public health initiatives, leveraging AI for early outbreak detection, and using digital tools to enhance communication, resource planning, and emergency response. Case studies will highlight successful digital transformation efforts that have strengthened public health systems and improved population outcomes globally.
