Bridging gaps in the future: Who will have the biggest impact?

In a dynamic symposium, four diverse specialists will present compelling arguments on the pivotal role of their respective fields in bridging future gaps. An oncologist, surgeon, computer scientist, and economist will articulate how their expertise offers unparalleled potential for impactful advancements. From innovative treatment modalities to data-driven decision-making and economic efficacy, each speaker will advocate for their discipline's unique capacity to address evolving challenges. This interdisciplinary dialogue promises to illuminate critical pathways toward comprehensive solutions, offering valuable insights into the future landscape of healthcare and collaborative problem-solving. Moreover, the audience will have the opportunity to vote and decide which specialist makes the most convincing case.
