Healthcare innovators and AI specialists are invited to join Mayo Clinic’s annual AI Research Summit, held June 4–5 in Rochester, Minnesota. This event convenes leading experts to discuss cutting-edge advances in artificial intelligence applied to healthcare, promoting best practices and new collaborative opportunities. A virtual attendance option increases accessibility for global participants.

This year’s summit will emphasize multi-agent modeling and simulation techniques as novel approaches to generate real-world evidence efficiently. Dr. Cui Tao, chair of Artificial Intelligence and Informatics at Mayo Clinic, highlights that these AI methods model complex patient scenarios and create dependable evidence faster than traditional trials. According to Dr. Tao, such tools reduce years of research to mere months, accelerating the development of trustworthy AI applications that enhance clinical decision-making and treatment innovations.

Summit Focus and Sessions

The program covers emerging topics including multi-agent clinical intelligence, virtual twin simulations, and multimodal foundation models. Emphasis will be placed on translating AI research into clinical settings and developing systems that are both trustworthy and governable. Attendees will engage in deep discussions on how AI can reshape healthcare workflows.

Keynote speakers announced for the summit are prominent figures such as Yong Chen, director at the University of Pennsylvania’s Center for Health AI; Peter Lee, president of Microsoft Research and Mayo Clinic trustee; Micky Tripathi, Mayo Clinic’s chief AI implementation officer; Yi Qian, vice president of Johnson & Johnson’s Global Real-World Evidence; and Matt Redlon, senior administrator for Mayo Clinic’s AI program.

Opportunities for Presenters

Researchers and practitioners have the opportunity to present their innovative work before a distinguished audience including experts from prestigious academic and industry institutions. The summit accepts three types of presentations:

  1. 10-minute lightning talks
  2. Poster sessions
  3. Workshops and tutorials

Top-scoring abstracts will be published in the peer-reviewed journal Mayo Clinic Proceedings: Digital Health.
