"How are medical AI devices evaluated, updated, and deployed?"

UCSF AI Seminar Series returns for another year with an exciting lineup of events. Kicking off this year's seminars will be James Zou, PhD, an associate professor at Stanford University. His presentation will explore how medical AI devices are evaluated, updated, and deployed, presenting analyses of these questions using FDA documentations and large-scale insurance claims. Dr. Zou will also share his experience of bringing EchoNet, an AI model for analyzing cardiac ultrasound videos, from research to deployment; EchoNet was cleared by the FDA in April 2024. Finally, he will discuss the challenges and opportunities of deploying large language models.
