LSA 2021: Review

The Lübeck Summer Academy occured on 16th June 2021, 9 am to 4 pm, online.
Regulatory affairs for medical devices
The Medical Device Regulation (MDR) transition period ended in May 2021. In our session on Regulatory Affairs we discussed the topic from various perspectives, including industry and notified bodies. The session was organised by Life Science Nord’s Working Group on Regulatory Affairs.

Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning

Ethical implications of AI and Deep Learning solutions are often discussed, including in medicine. Results of these discussions now gradually flow into European and national regulations, technical standards, and norms. A risk-based approach, familiar from other European regulations, such as the Medical Device and the IVD regulations, is being developed. We provided an overview on state of play and presented exiting examples of recent AI / DL-based solutions in medicine.
LSA2021 was organised as an online conference.
