Cambridge Healthtech’s 20th Annual
Transforming POC Diagnostics: AI-Driven Approaches and at-Home Testing
Next-Generation Point-of-Care Diagnostics from Home to Clinic
August 24-25, 2026
Point-of-care diagnostics are undergoing a rapid transformation, driven by advances in artificial intelligence and the expansion of testing beyond traditional clinical settings. Cambridge Healthtech Institute’s 20th annual Transforming POC Diagnostics: AI-Driven Approaches and at-Home Testing conference examines how AI-enabled platforms are refining diagnostic accuracy, workflow efficiency, and clinical decision-making across hospitals, pharmacies, mobile units, and home environments. This program will explore innovations in at-home and direct-access testing, the integration of AI and digital tools for real-time implementation, and strategies for deploying diagnostics in decentralized settings. The program brings together innovators, clinicians, industry leaders, and researchers to share operational and technical challenges of scaling point-of-care testing, and work through the complexities of implementing next-generation POC diagnostics to improve speed, access, and outcomes across diverse care settings.
Coverage will include, but is not limited to:
- Rapid molecular testing at the point of care
- Home collection and testing for healthcare efficiency
- Strategic integration of POC diagnostics in larger portfolios
- Enhanced utilization and deployment of POCT for new diagnostic applications
- AI capabilities in point-of-care testing workflows
- Predictive analytics to guide clinical decision-making
The deadline for priority consideration is February 2, 2026.
All proposals are subject to review by session chairpersons and/or the Scientific Advisory Committee to ensure the overall quality of the conference program. Additionally, as per Cambridge Healthtech’s policy, a select number of vendors and consultants who provide products and services will be offered opportunities for podium presentation slots based on a variety of Corporate Sponsorships.
