- Experts from Hospital Universitario La Paz, an international benchmark in health care innovation, are joining the faculty of this online AI in Health training program created by Founderz in collaboration with Microsoft and Luzán 5.
- According to the WHO, demand for health care professionals trained in AI will keep growing in the coming years to meet the needs of the sector.
- Health care centers face the challenge of integrating AI and new technologies into daily practice so they do not fall behind and can lead the way in tomorrow’s patient care.
Madrid, April 15. At a critical moment for the health care sector, when integrating technology matters more than ever, we are announcing our new online AI in Health program. We are doing this in collaboration with Microsoft, a leader in innovation, and Luzán 5, which brings extensive experience training health care professionals. The program will also include experts from Hospital Universitario La Paz, who are already applying AI in their daily work.
Designed to train health care professionals in the professional use of artificial intelligence, the program will provide the knowledge and tools needed to transform patient care, optimize resources, improve diagnostic accuracy, and personalize treatment.
Why AI training for health care is needed
This program answers a clear need. According to the WHO, demand for health care professionals trained in AI is rising, and every indication points to continued, rapid growth over the coming years. Several studies help explain why: AI can increase diagnostic accuracy by 30% (Stanford University) and cut health care costs by 50% (McKinsey).
In this context, health care centers face the challenge of integrating these technologies into daily practice so they do not fall behind and can lead the way in tomorrow’s patient care.
AI and health care: potential and real use cases
Throughout the program, health care professionals will learn to apply, in practice, the tools that are already transforming the sector, and see how experts from La Paz and experienced health care teams are putting them to use every day.
They will do so through a complete curriculum covering:
- The history and fundamentals of AI and its application to health care.
- Expert use of generative AI tools: ChatGPT, Midjourney, Copilot, and more.
- Machine learning, deep learning, and other techniques to improve diagnosis and treatment.
- Data processing and AI-assisted generation of clinical reports.
- AI-assisted hospital management, optimizing resources and processes.
- Developing research projects using AI tools.
- Integrating technology with a human centered approach to patient care.
- Responsible AI: ethical and regulatory implications.
Participants will learn directly from experts such as Juan José Ríos Blanco, Ana Gómez Galindo, María Alonso de Leciñana, Yale Tung Chen, and Jorge Álvarez Troncoso (Hospital Universitario La Paz), as well as David Rhew, Laura Born Navarro, Adrian Gonzalez Sanchez, and Alba Temes (Microsoft), among many others.
