Digital Health Cocktail Hour

Turning Intelligence Into Impact - Redesigning Cancer Care for the AI Era

As advances in artificial intelligence accelerate, cancer care stands at a pivotal moment: how do we move beyond experimentation and translate technological intelligence into outcomes that truly matter for patients, clinicians, and health systems?

Today’s care pathways are often fragmented, resource-intensive, and burdened by administrative complexity, while clinicians face growing workloads and patients navigate unequal access to prevention, diagnosis, and follow-up care.

In this conversation, we will examine the promise of AI in oncology, how data, AI-enabled tools, and value-based care models can be thoughtfully integrated to close gaps in screening and treatment, support clinical decision-making, and redesign the patient journey from prevention to survivorship.

Speakers:

🎤 Dr. med. Timo Rodi, Chief Medical Officer at Eterno
