Creating a new interdisciplinarity between medicine and high-tech

EKFZ for
Digital Health

DIE ZEIT Anniversary Edition:
80 Questions for Science and Research

In this special edition, our advertorial answers the question, “Who ensures that AI in medicine is safe and trustworthy?”

 Artificial intelligence in medicine must be reliable, secure, and transparent. It should focus on people and align with European security and data protection standards. To achieve this, AI technologies must be developed in Germany and Europe. At the EKFZ for Digital Health (TU Dresden), Jakob N. Kather, Professor of Clinical Artificial Intelligence, is already implementing this approach.
