Share your research on AI in healthcare at the first HINT.Science Conference
On 11 September 2026, HINT.GENT will host its first HINT.Science Conference on AI in healthcare. The event will bring together local and international experts for scientific presentations, keynote lectures, poster pitches by young researchers, and parallel sessions on engaging topics in AI and health.
The conference will take place at UGent campus Ardoyen in Zwijnaarde. The exact location and full programme are still under development and will be announced at a later stage.
We welcome all types of submissions related to AI and health, including ongoing research, preliminary studies, completed projects, and distillations of master’s theses. Submissions may be considered for either a poster session or an oral presentation, with a special emphasis on supporting young researchers.
The conference will also provide an excellent opportunity to meet both engineering and medical partners, exchange ideas across disciplines, and initiate valuable discussions between academia and the clinic.
Registration for the event is mandatory. Please register here.
