A multidisciplinary conference
On April 20th, 2024 a conference dedicated to the applications of Artificial Intelligence, Deep Learning, and Machine Learning in Ophthalmology was held at the Royal Society of Medicine, London. This unique and multidisciplinary gathering was aimed at the clinician with minimal computer science background, and highlighted promising areas of research and development. Prof Geoffrey Hinton, co-winner of the 2024 Nobel Prize in physics, was our keynote speaker. All proceeds from the conference will go towards supporting the important humanitarian work of the St John of Jerusalem Eye Hospital, a provider of expert ophthalmic care in the Middle East for over 140 years.
This conference was the second in a MasterClass series hosted by the Ophthalmic Association of the St John of Jerusalem Eye Hospital Group (SOA). Established in 2015, the SOA supports the academic and humanitarian activities of the St John of Jerusalem Eye Hospital, and comprises a global network of clinicians and healthcare professionals across 5 international hubs and 10 regional chapters. This conference was a collaboration between the University of Toronto, surgeons at Moorfields Eye Hospital, University College London, and the Canadian Chapter of the SOA. Financial support was been generously provided by the Canadian Priory of the Order of St John and our industry sponsors: Alcon, Bayer, and Roche.
