Events at Studium Generale and Osterfeld for Future scheduled for November 2023

On the evening of November 21st, Pforzheim University will host the Studium Generale event, titled "China and its Impact on our Lives, Politics, and Economy." The event, scheduled to begin at 7 p.m., will feature renowned German China expert and author, Frank Sieren, as the speaker.

In a separate development, three projects related to the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare are being funded by the state with a total of 2.5 million euros. One of these projects is being led by Prof. Dr. Stephan Kruck, the chief physician of urology at the Siloah St. Trudpert Clinic. Along with Prof. Dr. Sascha Kaufmann, he has launched a project focused on cancer diagnostics at the clinic.

The topic of the AI in Healthcare projects is not specified in the details provided, but Prof. Dr. Kruck's expertise in imaging systems, as the chairman of the Working Group on Imaging Systems of the DGU and the DEGUM Section of Urology, suggests that these projects may involve advanced imaging technologies for diagnostics and patient care.

The Studium Generale event will take place in Room 404 of the Osterfeld Cultural House, while the AI in Healthcare projects are being funded by the state. Among the institutions involved in these projects are the FZI Research Center for Information Technology in Karlsruhe, in cooperation with the Diakonie Baden, and the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) in Heidelberg.

Frank Sieren, who has lived in Beijing for almost 30 years and has written numerous bestsellers about China, has worked as a China correspondent for several media outlets. His lecture for the Studium Generale event is expected to cover topics related to China’s political, economic, or social developments, or possibly Sino-global relations.
