Agenda At a Glance Farther Down Eventbrite Page - (see dedicated section)

The CHAI Fall Symposium will convene healthcare executives, AI leaders, clinicians, researchers, and industry experts for a practical exploration of what it takes to govern the AI-enabled health system.

Held in collaboration with the 2026 UT REAL Health AI Symposium, this executive convening will examine how healthcare organizations are moving AI from experimentation into responsible, enterprise-wide use. Through keynotes, panels, interactive workshops, and small-group executive conversations, participants will explore the governance, infrastructure, security, and cross-sector collaboration needed to adopt AI safely and effectively.

The CHAI Fall Symposium takes place on October 6, immediately before the UT REAL Health AI Symposium on October 7–8. Together, these events create three days of discussion and collaboration focused on accelerating responsible AI across healthcare.

Come connect with the CHAI and UT communities and help shape the future of health AI.
