About this event

Dr Saumya Kareem Reni of the University of Westminster reveals how AI and advanced signal processing are dismantling the barriers to global health. From bulky lab equipment to AI-driven handheld diagnostics, this Royal Institution lecture traces the journey of point-of-care technology — and its potential to make malaria detection and tropical disease diagnosis accessible everywhere on earth. A rare intersection of DeepTech, global health, and applied AI.
