Build a working AI-powered Medical Affairs system that captures, synthesizes, and applies insight—at scale and in real time
An Immersive, Two-Day AI Experience Built for Real Impact
This is not another passive conference—this is a fully interactive, hands-on boot camp designed to transform how Medical Affairs teams operate with AI.
2-day intensive program
6 interactive modules
Team-based build sessions
No lectures
No Passive Panels
The Big Idea
What if your Medical Affairs team could capture, synthesize, and reuse knowledge instantly?
At Medical Affairs AI in Action, you won’t just learn about AI—you’ll build a working system.
In two intensive days, you’ll design and deploy a core component of a Medical Affairs Digital Twin: an AI-powered system that mirrors how your team thinks, works, and delivers insight.
Why This is Different
This is not a conference. It’s a build experience.
- No passive sessions—every module is hands-on
- Structured like a live hackathon
- Built entirely around real Medical Affairs use cases
- Focused on deployment—not theory
You’ll leave with something real. Something usable. Something you can take back and pilot immediately.
What You'll Build
Working in teams, you’ll create a functional AI Twin tailored to Medical Affairs, such as:
- Publications Brain → Evidence synthesis
- Insights Engine → Field intelligence patterns
- Medical Information Responder → Compliant MI responses
- Congress Monitor → Competitive intelligence
- Field Intelligence Engine → MSL/KOL planning
