The conference was centered on the world of medicine in 2040 and dealt with the interface between innovation and cyber in the world of medicine.
In light of the success and great interest aroused by the first conference among the medical community in Israel, President's Award recipient Rabbi Yossi Arblich, Chairman of "For You," initiated a conference in collaboration with Prof. Alon Chen, President of the Weizmann Institute of Science, that will address the hottest topic in the medical world in recent times - artificial intelligence in the service of medicine.
The second 'For You' conference will be held this October at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, and is expected to be attended by CEOs of the world's leading high-tech companies in the field of artificial intelligence - among them, Israel Prize laureate Prof. Amnon Shashua, President and CEO of Mobileye, Alon Haimovich, CEO of Microsoft Israel, Prof. Yossi Matias, Vice President of Google Worldwide and CEO of Google Israel, Gil Shvid, Israel Prize laureate and co-founder and CEO of Check Point, and Ruthie Kedar, VP and manager of the health sector at Microsoft Europe.
In addition, the heads of the Israeli health system, hospital directors and representatives of the health funds in Israel are also expected to participate, alongside the heads of 'For You', the chairman of the organization's Friends Association, philanthropist Benny Steinmetz, the organization's president Prof. Yosef Peres, his deputy Dr. Gadi Neumann and the director of the medical system Dr. Benny Davidson, and the doctors volunteering in the organization's 'Doctors in Reserves' project.
The conference will feature professional panels and lectures on the use of artificial intelligence in the medical world, presenting the benefits alongside the risks - and for the first time in Israel, participants will be shown live how artificial intelligence works in the medical field.
The organization is not yet revealing the list of lecturers, but promises that it will be a list of first-rate speakers from Israel and abroad.
The initiator and host of the conference is Rabbi Yossi Arblich, Chairman of Lemenkem: "Along with the help and medical guidance we provide to dozens of cases every week, Lemenkem has championed innovation in the world of medicine, which is expressed in collaborations with researchers and universities, along with scholarships for doctors who go abroad for training."'
""It is only natural that 'For You', together with the Weizmann Institute, will lead the discussion around the topic of artificial intelligence, which is the next thing in the world in general and in the world of medicine in particular. I have no doubt that the conference will provide added value to high-tech entrepreneurs and also to the other side, which is the dedicated doctors.".
