About the project
AI Safety in the health setting. Advancements in AI lead to clinical uses of AI systems for the triaging and care suggestions for patients. AI Safety in the clinical setting has a diverse range of stakeholders, regulatory requirements and needs.
As advances are made in Artificial Intelligence (AI), the technology is being applied to health-related problems. How do we evaluate the trustworthiness of these systems in the health context? This project will push the boundaries of our understanding of AI safety in complex, large-team systems in health through a mix of computer science and sociotechnical research.
This PhD is looking at AI Safety of the AI in the health and wellness context, including the other systems, monitoring and stakeholders impacted. How are safety concerns communicated appropriately for each stakeholder’s needs?
Working within the Southampton Biomedical Research Centre, the project sits within a world-leading digital ecosystem centred around translating cutting-edge tools and technologies to improve patient outcomes. The University of Southampton boasts a nationally leading compute cluster. The University Hospital Southampton is recognised as a global digital exemplar. The project will implement and test AI techniques including what AI Safety means, on rich, real-world patient data and scenarios.
We actively seek individuals from a diverse range of backgrounds to approach this problem with new insight, perspectives and approaches.
