Their participation provided an opportunity to share knowledge on healthcare management methods and emerging artificial intelligence tools with clinical professionals. Initiatives like this encourage exchange between academia, healthcare and industry, and bring innovative approaches closer to the challenges of COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) care.
