Ethics in Clinical AI Applications Workshop @ IJCAI–ECAI 2026
by Karen Fort 09 May '26

09 May '26

Dear colleagues, We are pleased to invite submissions to the workshop “Ethics in Clinical AI Applications (ETHICAIA)”, to be held in conjunction with IJCAI/ECAI 2026. 🌐 Website: https://ethicaia.loria.fr/ 📍 Location: Bremen, Germany 📅 Workshop dates: August 15–17, 2026 (TBC) 📝 Submission deadline: May 15, 2026 *About the workshop* Artificial intelligence is increasingly used in clinical contexts—supporting diagnosis, risk prediction, treatment planning, and patient interaction. However, these applications raise critical ethical challenges related to fairness, bias, accountability, transparency, privacy, and patient safety. ETHICAIA provides a dedicated forum to explore these issues as an integral part of AI research, not as an afterthought. We particularly emphasize the connection between ethical concerns and the robustness and real-world reliability of clinical AI systems, including challenges such as data shifts, uncertainty, and deployment conditions. We welcome contributions from across AI fields, including machine learning, NLP, computer vision, multimodal systems, and foundation models in healthcare. *Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):* * Fairness, bias, and representation in clinical AI * Ethical challenges in clinical decision support * Robustness and resilience under real-world conditions * Multimodal and foundation models in healthcare * Explainability, accountability, and contestability * Human–AI interaction and shared decision-making * Privacy, consent, and secondary use of clinical data * Synthetic data: benefits and ethical risks * Evaluation beyond accuracy (metrics, benchmarks, validation) * Regulatory and governance challenges * Real-world case studies and failure analyses * Ethical-by-design methodologies for clinical AI Best regards Roland Roller <https://www.linkedin.com/in/roland-roller-a9017877/>(DFKI <https://www.linkedin.com/search/results/all/?keywords=%23dfki&origin=HASH_T…>),Karën Fort <https://www.linkedin.com/in/karenfort/>(Universite de Lorraine <https://www.linkedin.com/company/universit-de-lorraine/> / LORIA),Massimo Esposito <https://www.linkedin.com/in/massimo-esposito-39134183/>(ICAR-CNR <https://www.linkedin.com/company/icar-cnr/>),Paolo Soda <https://www.linkedin.com/in/paolo-soda-9622197a/>(Università Campus Bio-Medico di Roma <https://www.linkedin.com/company/universita-campus-bio-medico/>/Umeå universitet (Umeå University) <https://www.linkedin.com/company/kamla-bhubneswer-b.-ed.-college/>) -- Karën Fort Prof. des Univ. en informatique / Professor in Computer Science Université de Lorraine / Loria Resp. du M2 TAL et resp. locale du Master Erasmus Mundus LCT Présidente du comité d'éthique du cluster IA ENACT Porteuse du projet ANR InExtenso (évaluation des biais dans les LLM) https://members.loria.fr/kfort LORIA : B116 / IDMC : 215 Quelle que soit l'heure de réception de ce message, il n'appelle pas de réponse de votre part en dehors des heures de travail.

Large language models, multimodal foundation models, and conversational agents make it possible to combine text, speech, vision, and physiological signals in ways that weren't practical a few years ago, and they raise difficult questions about usability, safety, explainability, trust, and evaluation when the stakes involve someone's health. HeMAI 2026 brings HCI, AI, and health researchers together to work through those questions. We welcome contributions on multimodal interaction techniques for health systems, conversational and embodied agents in healthcare, integration of text/speech/vision/biosignals, explainability and transparency, human-AI collaboration, safety and trust, ethical and regulatory issues, evaluation methodologies, and real-world deployments. Submission types: - Full research papers (up to 8 pages, excluding references) - Short / work-in-progress / position / demo papers (up to 4 pages, excluding references) Submissions follow ICMI 2026 author guidelines: https://icmi.acm.org/2026/guidelines/ Papers rejected from the main ICMI track are welcome if they fit the scope. Important dates (AoE): - Paper submission: 6 July 2026 - Notification: 29 July 2026 - Camera-ready: 1 August 2026 - Workshop: 9 October 2026 Workshop papers will be indexed by ACM Digital Library in an adjunct proceedings to ICMI 2026.
