Presentation
Integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies into clinical medicine has been hampered by challenges related to uncertain long-term clinical benefits, cost-effectiveness, and ethics/legal concerns. Application of AI in colonoscopy, a forefront research topic, has been also bothered by these issues. AI is, however, expected to reduce colorectal cancer incidence and mortality through personalized treatment. In this talk, Mori will introduce their effort and research projects which try to change this discouraging situation and thus drastically improve colorectal cancer care.
Speaker
Dr. Mori is a Professor of Medicine at the University of Oslo, and a Consulting Gastroenterologist at Oslo University Hospital. After a fifteen-year dedication to advanced endoscopy at Showa University in Japan, he moved to Norway in 2020 to pursue his research ambition. Currently, he is leading a global-scale, EU-funded research project, which aims at establishing the value of artificial intelligence in colon cancer prevention. He has published more than 150 academic articles with over 5,000 citations. He was a recipient of Marie Sk?odowska-Curie Actions International Fellowship.

About the seminar series
Once a month, dScience will invite you to join us for lunch and professional talks at the Science Library. In addition to these, we will serve lunch in our lounge in Kristine Bonnevies house every Thursday. Due to limited space (40 people), this will be first come, first served. See how to find us here.
Our lounge can also be booked by PhDs and Postdocs on a regular basis, whether it is for a meeting or just to hang out – we have fresh coffee all day long!
