Are or were you part of the vibrant Ghent University presence at the World Expo in Osaka, Japan, in June 2025?

Whether you met one of us during the Flemish Week, the Health & Well-Being Week, or contributed to our flagship event on June 20, 2025 — “Dare to Think about Health Tech Innovation. The Cross-Disciplinary Approach @ Ghent University” — We want to get in contact with you!

This platform is designed to bring together the contact information of all Ghent University staff who was present during the Flemish Week and the Health & Well-Being Week or who contributed to our flagship event

We invite you to explore the research and academic accomplishments of our diverse group of top experts @ Ghent University and get in contact with us!

At Ghent University, “Dare to Think” is more than a slogan – it is a call to action. It challenges us to question assumptions, to embrace complexity, and to think ahead. Nowhere is this mindset more vital than in the field of AI in health, where technological innovation must go hand in hand with ethical responsibility, legal insight, and clinical relevance.

This platform and its related flagship event invite you to discover how Ghent University researchers from diverse disciplines are working together to ensure that AI in health is developed and implemented in a way that is scientifically sound, socially responsible, and truly human-centered. From data science to medical ethics, from engineering to clinical practice – our community of “dare-to-thinkers” is shaping the future of healthcare.

I warmly invite you to explore the stories, projects, and people featured on this website. Let them inspire you, challenge you, and perhaps even encourage you to become our partner in daring to think – about health, about technology, and about the future we want to build together.

Rik Van de Walle, Rector Ghent University
