GLIP Members Participate in 11th International Summer School on Medical Law and Bioethics

Last week, the Chairman of GLIP, Doctor of Law Nino Lipartia, and board member, Doctor of Law Ioseb Gabaraev, took part in the 11th International Summer School Medical Law and Bioethics held at Aristotle University in Thessaloniki, Greece. Nino Lipartia and Ioseb Gabaraev presented to the international audience on the topic: "Legal Responsibility of Medical Artificial Intelligence Systems: Who is Accountable When a Medical AI Makes a Mistake?" The presentation discussed the legal challenges associated with the use of artificial intelligence in healthcare, distinctions between civil and criminal liability, legal evaluation of damages caused by errors of medical AI systems, as well as the scope of responsibility of doctors, medical institutions, software developers, and AI system manufacturers. Particular emphasis was placed on the international legal and ethical frameworks, including standards by the United Nations, World Health Organization (WHO), UNESCO, the European Union, and the Council of Europe. GLIP welcomes active cooperation and knowledge sharing in the international academic and professional space, fostering the development of international dialogue on contemporary challenges in medical law and legal regulation of artificial intelligence. We congratulate our colleagues for their honorable participation at the international forum and thank the event organizers for creating a high-level academic platform.
