Clalit will join European AI research project tackling pandemics after COVID

The AI system is designed to provide early warnings of potential outbreaks, assist in resource allocation, and improve response strategies. Clalit's data, encompassing millions of patient records, is expected to help train the AI models to recognize patterns indicative of emerging infectious diseases. The project will also involve researchers from other European institutions, with the goal of creating a scalable system that can be used globally.

The exact timeline and funding details for the project were not disclosed in the initial announcement. The collaboration highlights the growing role of AI in public health surveillance and response.
