About this Event
How do we make good decisions when the evidence is incomplete, the future uncertain, and values diverge? The 2026 SMDM Annual Meeting in Oslo aims to explore how uncertainty shapes decisions in medicine, public health, and policy. The conference brings together 300-500 scholars, clinicians, public health policy makers, trainees, students, and early career researchers dedicated to advancing medical decision making and features oral sessions, symposia, clinician focus sessions, poster presentations, and the prestigious Lee B. Lusted Student Prize Competition. Expand your professional network by connecting with colleagues throughout the event!
About this Event
This webinar will examine how generative AI is reshaping core HTA methods that are especially relevant for an SMDM audience of decision scientists and clinicians. It will use practical examples to show how genAI can accelerate evidence synthesis, support health economic model conceptualization and coding, and inform HTA reports and guidelines, while critically assessing risks such as bias and hallucinations. The session will also present practical guardrails— including human-in-the-loop validation and alignment with emerging HTA and AI governance initiatives— to help decision scientists determine when to trust, verify, or reject AI-assisted outputs in medical decision making.
