Artificial intelligence is a broad and growing discipline that touches many facets of everyday life for humans and is more recently emerging in veterinary medicine through topics like companion animal health, population medicine and zoonotic diseases, and digital agriculture and food sustainability. While there has been considerable growth in the use of AI in human medicine, to date, there has been no concerted effort to bring veterinarians practitioners and AI researchers together and share knowledge. This symposium, the first of its kind, will provide a forum for veterinarians, computer scientists, medical professionals,and other other disciplines to share expertise and knowledge, identify research focus areas and priorities, within an open, diverse, and inclusive environment.
