Elvira Perez Vallejos named as an RAi UK AI Champion

Earlier this year, Elvira Perez Vallejos, Professor of Digital Technology for Mental Health, Horizon Digital Economy Research Co-Investigator and Responsible Digital Futures Group member at the University of Nottingham was named as an RAi UK AI Champion.

The RAi UK Ai Champions Initiative is a pioneering effort designed to drive AI expertise within the NHS and broader healthcare sector, and will be instrumental in fostering a network of AI advocates dedicated to advancing the responsible development and deployment of AI technologies across the healthcare system.

Elvira said “While AI isn’t a replacement for human care, it holds promise for a more integrated and personalised approach to overall well-being. This aligns with a salutogenic approach of focusing on health and resilience.
