Responsible AI Roundtable on 1 Sep 2025
On 1 September 2025, the Centre convened panels of international and local experts in a collaborative initiative to bridge clinicians and engineers to accelerate the development and implementation of AI in real-world medical practice, while promoting responsible use and strong governance to ensure trust, safety, and public acceptance in patient care.
The international panel consisted of:
- Prof Walter Sinnott-Armstrong, Professor of Practical Ethics in the Department of Philosophy at Duke University;
- Professor Julian Savulescu, Bioethicist and Director of the Centre for Biomedical Ethics at the National University of Singapore Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine;
- Professor Cameron Stewart, Professor of Health, Law and Ethics at The University of Sydney;
- Professor Wong Tien Yin, the Founding Head and Chair Professor of Tsinghua Medicine, Tsinghua University;
- Professor Albert C. Yang, Director, Digital Medicine Center / School of Medicine, National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University, Taiwan;
- Professor Yuichi Mori, University of Oslo;
- Assoc. Professor Roger Chung; Co-Director of the CUHK Centre for Bioethics
Meaningful dialogues between the topic panels and observers, that consisted of representation from healthcare, policy-makers, patient advocates and patients, had sparked fruitful initiatives to produce more in-depth exploration. Some of the critical themes are privacy and consent, co-piloting, equity and bias, trust and explainability.
