Venue: Einstein Center Digital Future & Freie Universität Berlin, Germany

The international Symposium „DTx, AI and Data“ brings together international researchers from around the world to discuss current developments, opportunities, and challenges in the fields of Digital Therapeutics (DTx), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and health data research.

Digital therapeutics are clinically validated, patient-oriented software applications that support the diagnosis, treatment, management, or prevention of diseases. The symposium will explore the scientific, technical, and societal dimensions of this emerging form of digital healthcare, with a focus on:

• The design, implementation, and use of digital therapeutics,
• Strategies to enhance acceptance and adherence,
• Interdisciplinary research approaches across medicine, information systems, artificial intelligence, behavioral science, and economics,
• Challenges within healthcare systems and in clinician-patient interactions.

The program will include research presentations by international scholars, roundtable discussions, flash talks by PhD students and postdocs, industry and career development panels. The symposium aims to inspire new research ideas and foster international collaboration.
