Workshop Description:

Background:

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing healthcare by enhancing medical data analytics and smart rehabilitation technologies. AI-driven methods are transforming disease diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment planning by extracting valuable insights from multimodal medical data, including imaging, biomedical signals, and electronic health records. Deep learning, computer vision, and predictive analytics have enabled fast, accurate, and personalized medical decision-making, improving outcomes in precision medicine and patient-specific rehabilitation strategies. With continuous advancements in AI, parallel computing, and big data processing, this field integrates multidisciplinary domains such as radiology, orthopedics, cardiology, neurology, pathology, biomedical engineering, informatics, and robotics. AI-powered intelligent rehabilitation systems leverage real-time sensor data and adaptive learning algorithms to optimize therapy for patients recovering from neurological and musculoskeletal disorders. As AI continues to evolve, it holds tremendous potential to reshape modern healthcare, offering enhanced clinical efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and personalized treatment solutions.

Goal/Rationale:

The ICBioMed 2025 workshop on AI for Healthcare: Advanced Medical Data Analytics and Smart Rehabilitation aims to unite medical professionals, researchers, engineers, and students to explore the latest advancements in AI-driven medical data analysis and intelligent rehabilitation. With AI revolutionizing precision medicine and clinical decision-making, this workshop will highlight cutting-edge methods such as deep learning, predictive modeling, and biomedical signal processing. Key applications include early diagnosis of neurological disorders (e.g., ADHD, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s), AI-assisted stroke recovery prediction, brain tumor analysis, and personalized rehabilitation strategies. Additionally, AI-powered image-guided interventions and adaptive rehabilitation systems will be discussed to demonstrate how AI enhances treatment accuracy and patient outcomes. This workshop will foster interdisciplinary collaboration, providing a platform to share research, address challenges, and explore AI's transformative potential in data-driven, patient-centric healthcare solutions.

Visitor visas and the NZeTA

Check if you need a visitor visa or an NZeTA
If you come to New Zealand on holiday, you'll need to get either an NZeTA or a visitor visa — unless you're an Australian citizen.
How to apply for a visitor visa
If you come to New Zealand on holiday, you might need to apply for a visitor visa before you arrive. Work out what you need to do to apply.
How to request an NZeTA
Find out how to request an NZeTA (New Zealand electronic Travel Authority) and how much it costs. Allow 72 hours for your request to be processed.
How to pay the International Visitor Levy
Most people visiting NZ must pay the NZD$35 International Visitor Levy. You'll pay the IVL at the same time you pay for your NZeTA or visitor visa.
