“AI-powered public health intelligence, built on i2b2”

The i2b2 annual symposium brings together experts on Federated Networks, AI in Medicine and i2b2 using EHR data to support clinical research and public health.

Join clinicians, researchers, and technology leaders for two days focused on how i2b2, AI, and modern data platforms are transforming public health, clinical research, and real‑time population intelligence.

This year’s program features keynote speaker Monica Bharel, MD, MPH, and a full slate of sessions on wastewater surveillance, human‑values‑centered AI, EHR‑based public health networks, secure data enclaves, computed phenotypes, and next‑generation i2b2 capabilities.

Highlights Include

June 9 – Speaker Session

• Keynote: Monica Bharel, MD, MPH

• Human Values Project: AI supporting public health (Zak Kohane, MD, PhD)

• Panels: Wastewater surveillance; EHR networks for public health; Secure enclave use cases

• Talks: Computed phenotypes & federated learning; Protocol complexity in clinical trials; Drug discovery and patient impact; i2b2 cohort orchestration with DataLENS

• Sponsor and innovation updates throughout the day

June 10 – i2b2 Workshops

A half‑day, hands‑on workshop will introduce participants to the redesigned i2b2 platform for cohort discovery and data analysis, with guided exercises using the new query tool, OMOP integrations, and the SHRINE federated query network.

Attendees will learn core concepts for organizing EHR data, building and analyzing cohorts, querying multiple data models, and running distributed network queries. The session is designed primarily for novice users but valuable for all experience levels, offering practical training led by the i2b2 development team. Also, learn the recent features in 1.8.2 and 1.8.3
