Peter Peumans
CTO Health Technologies | imec
Peter Peumans is Senior Vice President Life Science Technologies at imec. He works at the intersection of deep technology, life sciences and healthcare innovation.
At imec, Peter helps shape the technologies that can support the next generation of health innovation: advanced sensing, chip-based systems, diagnostics, biological measurement tools and AI-enabled life sciences applications. His work is rooted in a clear challenge: if we want better AI models, better medicines and better healthcare decisions, we first need better ways to measure the body and understand biological data.
In his Thursday session, Peter brings a future-facing but concrete perspective on healthcare. He will explore how prevention, early detection, wearables, biological data and AI could change the way we think about health.
