Emerging Trends: Embracing new technologies and practices to sustain clinical health and well-being

Keeping up with the rapid changes in technology and practice can be tough. We’ve got you covered at FPDD 2024.

Our first plenary session looks at how artificial intelligence (AI) is impacting health care, bringing benefits to both the procedures and outputs of medical practice. You learn about the opportunities and challenges of AI implementation for clinicians and researchers. Our second plenary session looks at strategies to address the ergonomic situations that lead to musculoskeletal disorders (MSD).

Add in afternoon small group sessions, plus an awards reception and raffle, and it’s a day well spent.
