On 2nd February 02:00-02:45 PM (UTC+2), Xu Zong will be presenting at PopHel Talks with title:
AI in Health Inequality Research: Promises, Challenges, and an Agenda
Drawing on research on health inequalities across the life course using large-scale population data, this talk discusses how artificial intelligence (AI) / machine learning methods can contribute to health inequality research. I will illustrate how these approaches can be combined with causal inference frameworks to study heterogeneous effects, long-term exposures, and intergenerational processes. Based on experiences with publications, I will also reflect on common critiques, methodological concerns, and current limitations of AI-related research in this field. The talk concludes by proposing an agenda for responsibly integrating AI methods into population health and social science research.
