- the analysis and identification of the factors that lead to the successful and less successful deployment of AI in healthcare as well as challenges and obstacles
- the preparation of good deployment practices for AI in healthcare, recommendations and guidelines tailored to the needs of the specific users/environments in healthcare to accelerate the safe and effective deployment of AI in clinical practice in collaboration with the expert community or communities
- the design, development, and execution of pilots to test and evaluate in diverse real-life environments the expert community(ies)’s developed good deployment practices, guidelines and recommendations
