SUMMARY:Free webinar: The Health Chatbot User Guide — using AI chatbots safely for health (28 Oct\, online)
DESCRIPTION:AI chatbots are already in your patients’ pockets — the question is whether anyone has told them how to use them safely. The HDR UK Midlands Incubator for AI & Digital Healthcare hosts a free one-hour webinar on Wednesday 28 October 2026\, 4–5pm (via Zoom) introducing the Health Chatbot User Guide\, presented by Dr Elinor Laws\, Public Health Registrar and NIHR Academic Clinical Fellow at the University of Birmingham. \nMost general-purpose AI chatbots were not designed for health questions — but patients are using them anyway. This guide is aimed at both patients trying to get safe value from chatbots and clinicians who need to advise patients who have already used them. Dr Laws\, co-chair of the Faculty of Public Health AI and Digital Public Health SIG and involved in the STANDING Together project\, brings a population-health lens to AI safety — including what it means for health inequalities. \nFor founders building conversational AI into NHS pathways\, this is a useful window into how the research community is framing the patient-safety problem (and what clinicians will be told to look out for). \nFree to attend.

SUMMARY:AI in Healthcare Conference 2026 — NHS 10-Year Plan and the workforce AI capability gap
DESCRIPTION:About this event \nThe NHS 10 Year Health Plan sets an explicit ambition for AI to be woven through clinical pathways — but the risk\, according to the GovernmentEvents AI in Healthcare Conference 2026 speaker line-up\, is that only the most digitally advanced trusts are positioned to benefit. \nThis one-day\, fully online conference on 19 November 2026 is aimed at closing that gap. Dr Shereen Fouad (Aston Centre for AI Research and Application) opens with a keynote on building AI capability across the healthcare workforce — AI literacy\, hallucination and bias risks\, data quality\, and how organisations sustain upskilling as tooling evolves. \nWhy it’s worth your morning:\n• Direct line into how NHS England is framing AI adoption post-10 Year Plan\n• Sessions on implementation in less-digitally-mature organisations — the actual hard problem\n• Online format means no travel-time cost for clinicians and founders juggling delivery \nRegister: Book via GovernmentEvents

SUMMARY:NIHR Evidence Generation for Diagnostics 2026 — online course for diagnostics developers
DESCRIPTION:New diagnostics need evidence before they reach patients. On 24–25 November 2026\, the NIHR HealthTech Research Centre in Diagnostic and Technology Evaluation is running an online course on how to develop that evidence effectively — from early-stage portfolio building through to health economics and regulatory readiness. \nThe two-day programme is a step-by-step guide to evidence generation\, delivered by experts from Newcastle University\, Newcastle Hospitals and the health technology industry. Topics include identifying unmet clinical needs\, selecting reference standards\, measuring diagnostic accuracy\, examining clinical utility\, and building cost-effectiveness and budget-impact models. The course also highlights the support available from the NIHR HRC to diagnostics developers at each stage. \nThis is an introductory course suitable for anyone with an interest in diagnostic evidence generation — whether you’re an academic researcher\, an industry developer\, or an NHS innovator trying to understand what evidence payers actually want. \nWhen: 24–25 November 2026\, 09:00–15:00\nWhere: Online\nOrganiser: NIHR HealthTech Research Centre in Diagnostic and Technology Evaluation\nRegistration: Evidence Generation for Diagnostics 2026

SUMMARY:Getting it right first time: master the NICE healthtech committee process — online workshop\, 24 November
DESCRIPTION:If NICE evaluation is on your route-to-market plan\, this is a practical two-and-a-half hours well worth blocking out. On Tuesday 24 November 2026\, 13:00–15:30\, NICE Advice is running an interactive online workshop: Getting it right first time — master the NICE healthtech committee process. \nThe session is designed to help healthtech developers understand how NICE’s healthtech committee evaluation works — so submissions land properly the first time rather than bouncing back for clarification. For founders and evidence leads preparing for NICE assessment (or deciding whether it’s the right pathway)\, this is the process explained by the people who run it. \nFormat: online\, interactive workshop — so expect working through the process rather than a passive webinar. \nRegister via Eventbrite
