Artificial Intelligence and the Medical Record in the Context of Social Security Disability Evaluations: A Workshop

April 6 - 7, 2026

Upcoming

About

Artificial intelligence is rapidly redefining the way healthcare professionals create, interpret, and evaluate medical records. In clinical practice, AI tools now assist with symptom assessment, imaging analysis, predictive diagnostics, and automated documentation — capabilities that have the potential to improve efficiency, accuracy, and accessibility. Concurrently, these technologies are transforming how medical evidence is reviewed for Social Security disability evaluations, creating both opportunities and challenges for quality assurance, error reduction, and fraud prevention. As adoption expands, it is critical for clinicians, informaticians, policymakers, and evaluators to understand AI’s impact on the integrity of medical documentation and the decision-making processes it informs. Artificial Intelligence and the Medical Record in the Context of Social Security Disability Evaluations: A Workshop will explore the latest developments in AI as it pertains to medical care and the current and upcoming implementations of AI systems or software that create, modify, edit, or otherwise interact with medical or health records. The workshop will include presentations with a focus on how AI may impact the information contained in medical records received by SSA for the purposes of disability evaluation, and how SSA might identify and accurately consider such information.

Policy Issues for Integrating Artificial Intelligence in Cancer Research and Care: A Workshop

March 9 - 10, 2026

Upcoming

About

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare has been growing rapidly in recent years. It is increasingly recognized for its transformative potential in healthcare, particularly in oncology. This workshop will examine the current and potential future uses of AI in cancer care, and ways to anticipate and address challenges related to integration of these technologies in the care of patients with cancer. With a focus on the responsible and effective use of AI in oncology, the hybrid workshop will consider current policy initiatives across healthcare and the unique needs for oncology care.

Pathways to Doctoral Degrees in Computing: Report Release Webinar

About

The United States faces a critical shortage of computing doctorates—a vital workforce responsible for driving advances in artificial intelligence, bolstering cybersecurity, and training the next-generation of computing innovators. A decline in advanced degrees in computing will undercut technology innovation across all sectors and put U.S. global competitiveness at risk.

A new National Academies’ report, Pathways to Doctoral Degrees in Computing, recommends addressing this anticipated shortage through improved graduate student recruitment, retention, and mentoring programs as well as targeted interventions to address hiring challenges. The report also explores how new partnerships between academia and industry could better align computing programs with broader workforce needs, and what data is needed to support these efforts. Join us for a report release webinar on Friday, December 12th from 12:30pm-1:30pm ET to learn more.
