SUMMARY:AI-Driven Approaches to Validate NAMs and Reduce Animal Dependency in Biomedical Research
DESCRIPTION:Date: August 13\, 2025 \nTime: 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM \nLocation: Zoom http://go.unc.edu/nam-zoom (Registration Required) \n  \n  \nSpeaker: \nMelissa Haendel\, PhD\, FACMI \nDistinguished Professor\, Genetics \nDirector of Precision Health & Translational Informatics \nDeputy Director of Computational Science – NC TraCS \nmhaendel@email.unc.edu \n  \nDescription:  \nJoin us for a dynamic session exploring how artificial intelligence and computational modeling are transforming biomedical science. This webinar will spotlight the critical role of AI in validating New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) and reducing reliance on traditional animal models. \n  \nOur featured speaker\, Dr. Melissa Haendel\, a national leader in biomedical data science and translational informatics\, will share insights into how AI-driven models are accelerating the development of human-relevant systems such as organoids\, iPSCs\, and digital twins. Learn how these innovations are reshaping disease modeling\, therapeutic testing\, and our understanding of human biology. \n  \nThis event is the first installment in the UNC School of Medicine AI in Research webinar series.
