Professor Ewa Stępień takes part among 50 invited experts from around the world in
Sparks! Forum at CERN.
The theme for the second edition of the Sparks! Forum is Future Technology for Health. CERN has actively pursued medical applications of its technologies since as far back as the 1970s. The tools of experimental particle physics are ubiquitous in hospitals and biomedical research. However, Sparks! goes beyond what is done at CERN.
Spanning the domains of prevention, diagnosis, and treatment, the topics for this edition of Sparks! will spark new questions about the links between medical technologies and fundamental science, globalization, accessibility, trust, ethics, and more. We will be calling on doctors, tech developers, economists, policymakers, ethicists, patient associations, medical researchers, humanitarian organizations, medical foundations, UN agencies, data specialists, climate modelers, AI developers, and journalists to discuss the topics listed below - and any others that arise in the process!
