Presentation Time: 03:30 PM - 05:00 PM

Abstract Keywords: Large Language Models (LLMs), Clinical Decision Support, Diagnostic Systems, Health Equity, Privacy and Security, Legal, Ethical, Social and Regulatory Issues
Primary Track: Applications

The panel explores the transformative impact of Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT in biomedicine and health informatics, reflecting on the rapid advancements and broad applications of generative AI. The panel will start with an explanation of the rationale behind developing a special issue in JAMIA focused on LLMs and its peer-review process. This will be followed by a structured overview of those accepted papers, as well as aggregated statistics of all submissions. By focusing on innovative methodologies, challenges, and opportunities for future integration into healthcare systems, the panel aims to provide a comprehensive and timely overview of the current landscape and trends in LLM research within biomedicine. Through interactive dialogue with the attendees, the session seeks to illuminate ways to advance healthcare through the responsible application of LLMs, addressing educational needs, evaluation methods, and the integration of domain knowledge to refine these powerful tools.
