Together, Not Instead of: the Potential of Using AI in Healthcare in Russia
Is artificial intelligence currently a necessity or a protracted experiment? Just three years ago, it seemed like it was the distant future, but today AI is a tool that is gradually becoming an assistant for specialists from various fields. Each region of Russia has introduced at least one medical solution with artificial intelligence, such as services for analysing medical images and electronic medical records. The use of AI portends an explosive increase in labour productivity, a reduction in incidental resource costs, including time and human resources, a brand-new level of predictive analytics, as well as human interaction with the healthcare system through personal digital assistants. Speakers will share their experience in introducing artificial intelligence technologies and also discuss the main obstacles that arise in the use of AI. What effects could result from the introduction of AI systems for different beneficiaries: doctors, patients, scientists, and industry managers? What problems is AI solving today and what are scientists arguing about? What are the prospects for using technology in the future? Can this technology be 100% trusted?

A Healthy Workforce: New Directions and Solutions
The health of the economically active population is the most significant component of national wealth and a special economic resource that largely dictates the effectiveness of a country’s socioeconomic development. Nowadays, more and more companies are engaging in socially responsible business. The introduction of corporate health promotion programmes in the workplace can improve the health and well-being of the working-age population and also enhance the economic efficiency of employee conduct. Not only do the programmes directly cover medical issues (screenings, preventive examinations, etc.), they also aim to combat bad habits, promote healthy nutrition and corporate sports, and preserve people’s psychological health and well-being. The national telethon #HEALTHYTOGETHER Health Marathon, which was held in the Russian Federation Council as part of the project ‘Social Focus: Ideas of the New Times’ of the upper parliament’s Council for the Development of Social Innovations of the Regions of the Russian Federation and aims to promote the best social practices for preserving the health of the working population and creating an environment that is conducive to protecting people’s health, is the first team-building event as part of systematic work to preserve the health of the working population and has created new prospects for the joint and integrated work of government, business, and civil society to establish new unified health management mechanisms at the regional and municipal levels. What new approaches are needed to health management at the regional and municipal levels? What is the role of the regional and municipal authorities and business in maintaining and improving the health of the working population? How can we intensify interaction between government, business, and civil society to improve public health? What effective practices exist to promote worker health?

Healthy Eating and Nutrition Supplements. Finding the Right Balance
As more and more people pay closer attention to their health and nutrition today, the consumption of dietary supplements is becoming more popular. At the same time, it is still crucial to find an optimal balance between the need for additional nutrients and possible risks from the use of dietary supplements, as well as increase awareness about such issues among consumers, manufacturers, and clinical specialists. This means there is an urgent need to discuss regulatory issues, clinical recommendations, and risks associated with the dietary supplement market. What role do healthy nutrition and dietary supplements play in maintaining people’s health and preventing diseases? What framework is used in clinical studies to confirm the effectiveness and safety of dietary supplements? How is the dietary supplement market regulated? How can we establish interaction between dietary supplement manufacturers, clinicians, and consumers to ensure the latter receives quality products and makes an informed choice? How are the risks and side effects of consuming dietary supplements evaluated? What is the role of education and information campaigns in raising awareness about healthy eating and the use of dietary supplements? Why is it crucial to create a professional standard for specialists in sensible nutrition and a healthy lifestyle?

Beating Lung Cancer. Innovative Diagnosis and Treatment Methods
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide and a major global health challenge. Estimates from the International Agency for Research on Cancer calculated based on data from 185 countries show that lung cancer accounted for 12.4% of the total number of newly diagnosed cancer cases in 2022 and 18.7% of total deaths from cancer, which is approximately 2.5 and 1.8 million people, respectively. The healthcare system’s priority goals in preventing lung cancer are to vastly increase the detection and treatment of the disease in its early stages, as well as the number of studies to identify innovative methods of therapy using advanced scientific achievements, including personalized high-tech medicine. In this regard, the government and the professional community need to work together to significantly increase the life chances of patients in an effort to improve primary prevention measures, expand the criteria and opportunities for implementing cancer screening programmes as part of clinical examinations in all regions of Russia, and utilize the power of artificial intelligence to interpret the results of diagnostic studies. What programmes for the prevention, detection, and treatment of lung cancer have proven to be the most effective in Russia and around the world? What innovative drugs and methods of treating lung cancer have already been introduced and will appear in the near future? What opportunities exist today for implementing lung cancer screening programmes as a tool for reducing mortality from malignant tumours? What successful global best practices in organizing programmes to prevent and treat lung cancer can be applied in Russia?

Intellectual Property in Pharmaceuticals: Fight or Discussion?
Issues concerning intellectual property in the pharmaceutical industry are particularly acute, since effective legal regulation and enforcement in the industry directly affects how Russia protects the life and health of the population and the country’s drug independence. The rapid development of domestic pharmaceuticals has made it crucial to improve legal mechanisms, balance the interests of foreign copyright holders and domestic manufacturers, and harmonize the approaches that domestic and foreign intellectual property institutions take to establishing and extending patent protection.

Advanced Pharmaceuticals in Russia: Unique Developments, New Technologies, and Industry Leadership
The pharmaceutical industry is one of the priority focuses for development of the national social policy, the economy, and the global market. Given Russia’s current foreign policy challenges and desire to be independent of imports, the country’s advanced pharmaceuticals are trending upwards in terms of developing and applying innovative technologies and IT solutions to automate key economic sectors, develop promising biotechnologies, and create effective new types of medicines. In 2023, Russian pharmaceutical companies demonstrated steady growth and accounted for more than 36% of the national market in rouble terms, concentrating not only on the production of safe and high-quality medicines – generics – that the population needs due to the forced substitution of imports, but also on the production of unique modern endocrinological, neurological, rheumatological, antibacterial, and other drugs. How has the Russian national pharmaceutical market changed over the past year? What challenges does the pharmaceutical industry face in terms of providing the population with high-tech medicinal products? What measures could encourage private investors to invest in the shares of pharmaceutical companies? What biotechnologies will drive the development of the modern pharmaceutical industry in the near future? How can we effectively use IT technologies and artificial intelligence to develop new drugs? What incentives exist for developing the scientific and technological capabilities of pharmaceutical companies?

Focus on Health: The Corporate and Social Initiatives of Russian Companies
Health is an invaluable resource for individuals, society, and countries as a whole. The well-being of employees directly affects their productivity, and the opportunity to remain healthy with their employer’s support increases loyalty. Investing in innovative approaches to prevent diseases is a crucial task, as well as an opportunity and huge market for the products and services of Russian companies. The current trend is that most companies not only care about their employees, but also about their families. Modern socially responsible businesses and non-profits are responsible for raising awareness about shared responsibility for solving such challenges as preserving a good quality of life of the working-age population, as well as the population’s constant involvement in projects to cultivate awareness. What new solutions will improve health in Russia? How can we improve employees’ health and the quality of their life? How are corporate voluntary health insurance programmes becoming an important factor in attracting the best talent? How do corporate sports affect companies? What social initiatives have proven to be the most in-demand? Why is concern for preserving the working population’s quality of life the shared task of businesses, partner non-profits, and employees themselves?

Digital Health Ecosystems: Expanding the Capabilities of the National Healthcare System
Virtual reality technologies and the metaverse with its wide range of services can and should be used in the interests of human health. Digital ecosystems offer new opportunities for the healthcare system to utilize telemedicine platforms, monitor people’s health, combat non-communicable diseases, rapidly exchange information within the professional community, instil health awareness in the population, involve patients in managing their health, and help develop and create an environment to preserve people’s health. Technologies that can replace inpatient facilities using AI and the Internet of Things, health monitoring systems, and medical gadgets are making it much easier to move medical care from the walls of a hospital to the patient’s home. This can be particularly useful in situations where there is a shortage of healthcare workers, or in hard-to-reach areas. Today, information technologies that facilitate data exchange and analysis are one of the main tools for modernizing healthcare. A federal vertically integrated medical information system should provide organizational, methodological, and information support for the activities of those working in the national healthcare system within a unified digital environment. What are the current priorities in the introduction of digital health? What barriers are hindering the development of digital medicine? How do digital ecosystems help to improve the accessibility and quality of healthcare? What opportunities and risks for healthcare exist for the practical application of metaverses? What progressive digital healthcare solutions are the drivers of the IT and medical services markets offering today?

Tech Entrepreneurship in Medicine: Connecting Science, Personnel and Business
Technological sovereignty is a key aspect of economic development and national security. Skilled professionals capable of creating and introducing advanced technologies in biomedicine are needed to ensure the necessary indicators are achieved. How can we ensure the training of such specialists? Education in science, leadership, and entrepreneurship should be an integral part of the university curriculum. Not only will this help develop a culture of scientific thinking and ambition among future specialists, it will also equip young scientists with the skills needed to implement their own projects and ideas. In addition, it is becoming increasingly obvious that universities, philanthropists, development institutions, venture capital funds, and business communities need to work together. Such synergy helps to combine efforts to prepare students and young scientists for the real challenges of a market economy, supports the development of start-ups and companies, and contributes to the creation of an innovative ecosystem. What practices already exist for developing student technology entrepreneurship and how are they evolving? What entrepreneurial expertise and skills should students and young scientists have? How should a modern system of creativity work in the technological world to ensure the most efficient use of available resources to create new technologies?

A Leap of Faith: How Science Can Become the Foundation of the Future Economy
The modern world is developing based on the accelerated transition of scientific achievements from the category of knowledge into practical technologies and economic utility. However, this is a difficult process due to the need to build a space of trust between representatives of science, business, and the state. Despite the government’s increased funding for science and R&D, the existing links used to put knowledge and technology into economic circulation are not working at full capacity. This has resulted in certain scientific knowledge never leaving the laboratory, even though it has great potential for the future. To make the leap from knowledge to economic utility, scientists need to learn to entrust business with the most valuable thing: research results. With the participation of business and the government, clear mechanisms can be formulated to motivate scientists to put their results to practice. Existential challenges are also stimulating the development of individual scientific fields today: technological sovereignty and leadership cannot be attained without constant attention to science and support for research. In many areas, however, we do not fully understand the challenges that lie ahead, even though they could have a major impact on the world’s technological landscape. How can scientific knowledge overcome the valley of death and become economically useful? What role do scientists play in this process and when should business get involved? How are scientific and technological challenges becoming existential today? How can we establish chains to transfer scientific knowledge to the economy? What kind of common language should science, business, and government have to create a space of trust?

The Health and Beauty Ecosystem
External beauty is often an indicator of physical and mental health, which is the foundation of a long and active life. To preserve their health and beauty, people need a symbiosis of techniques that have a preventive effect on the human body without waiting for a deterioration in their quality of life or diseases to appear. The concept of ‘smart beauty and health’ entails the continuous monitoring of people’s well-being, the inclusion of optimal physical activity in their daily routine, a proper sleep schedule, and personalized nutrition that replenishes essential micronutrients. Modern medicine and the beauty industry offer a number of innovative approaches that have already proven to be effective in some countries and are gaining popularity every year in Russia: genetic tests and analyses for the early diagnosis of diseases and the selection of ‘smart aging’ programmes; the use of dietary supplements; the development of personal health and beauty events; and adaption to new trends in the beauty industry both for aesthetic purposes and to gain self-confidence; psychological counselling and prevention. Taking a responsible attitude towards various aspects of your health can improve your quality of life, however, there are a number of challenges inherent in promoting this approach: insufficient information among the population about healthy daily habits, a shortage of high-quality functional food products on the Russian market, the lack of a proper legislative framework for complementary medicine, and ambiguous public attitudes towards the beauty industry and the philosophy of self-care. According to various estimates, no more than 10% of the country’s population adheres to a healthy lifestyle, although this figure is higher among women. What does the concept of an ‘ecosystem of beauty and health’ mean for contemporary people? What innovative approaches and techniques can collectively support beauty and health? How can we effectively neutralize factors that negatively affect a person’s health and appearance? How is the beauty industry changing our understanding of physical attractiveness, health, and well-being?

Medical Clinics of the Future: Advanced Technologies and Unique Solutions
Medical clinics are currently undergoing strategic transformations that aim to optimize processes in order to take medical services to a whole new level and enhance the socioeconomic efficiency of the national healthcare system. Today, patients have a certain level of knowledge about the medical services market, which influences their demands and expectations from the medical clinic they choose and helps ensure their active involvement in the healthcare system. Healthcare workers are also changing their perspective on the process of providing healthcare. By using a participatory approach, healthcare organizers have successfully involved medical personnel and patients directly in the development of unique management solutions, such as the introduction of advanced medical technologies and progressive methods of service, the promotion of a person-centred approach in medicine and doctor-patient interaction, ensuring the quality of medical services based on professional standards, and expanding the role of personalized medicine, as well as preventive medicine and early diagnosis. What advanced technologies and unique solutions will be effectively used at medical clinics in the near future? How does a participatory approach to the management of medical organizations affect the development of the healthcare system? How can we effectively involve medical personnel in the development of innovative solutions for healthcare institutions? What methods of serving and working with patients at medical clinics have proven to be the most effective today?
