30th Anniversary of the IDA Symposium, Konstanz, Germany
The IDA group’s founder Professor Xiaohui Liu celebrated 30 years of his annual symposium at IDA 2025 in Konstanz, Germany. He, Stephen Swift and Allan Tucker were awarded the IDA Founder’s Award.
The IDA group part of new £1m Centre of Excellence
Digital health products, from smartphone apps to AI-enhanced diagnostic devices, are increasingly beneficial for patients and healthcare professionals alike – and the UK is a global pioneer in this sector. However, the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence and medical technologies presents complex regulatory challenges that must be addressed to ensure innovation thrives while safeguarding patients and users.
To tackle this issue, a new Centre of Excellence in Regulatory Science and Innovation (CERSI) in Transformative Digital Health and AI will be established, with £1 million funding from the UK’s Innovate UK, the Medical Research Council, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency, and the Office for Life Sciences.
RADIANT is the interdisciplinary consortium behind this CERSI. Led by Brunel University London and with key expertise provided by The IDA group.
