ABH 2027 – 2nd International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Blockchain in Healthcare 22–23 July 2027, Rome, Italy https://abh.scitevents.org Organised by INSTICC, in conjunction with SECRYPT 2027, QUANTICS 2027, SIMULTECH 2027 and ICSBT 2027. SCOPE ABH brings together researchers, clinicians, engineers, regulators and industry practitioners working on the convergence of AI and blockchain in healthcare. The conference focuses on building intelligent, secure and equitable medical systems, with particular emphasis on ethics, governance, quality assurance and validation “by design” rather than as an afterthought. Contributions may be technical, clinical, regulatory, economic or educational. CONFERENCE AREAS 1. Blockchain Engineering in Healthcare 2. Quality Assurance and Testing 3. Governance by Design 4. Blockchain Ethics by Design 5. AI Ethics by Design 6. Future Applications of Agent AI and Agentic AI in Healthcare 7. Technical Implementation and Engineering 8. Clinical and Practical Applications 9. Regulatory and Policy Frameworks 10. Economic and Business Models 11. NLP, Knowledge Graphs, and Multimodal AI 12. AI in Education and Intelligent Learning Systems in Healthcare Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): healthcare-specific blockchain architectures and smart contracts; interoperability and scalability for medical data; testing, validation and verification of AI–blockchain systems; multi-stakeholder governance and patient-rights enforcement; privacy-preserving AI (federated learning, homomorphic encryption, zero-knowledge proofs); explainable AI for clinical decision support; agentic AI in clinical workflows; GDPR/HIPAA compliance by design; decentralised clinical trials; EHR enhancement and medical imaging with verified results; telemedicine and remote monitoring; healthcare supply chains; economic and tokenomic models; LLMs, RAG and knowledge graphs for healthcare; and AI in medical and healthcare education.
