Nature Reviews Nephrology welcomes you to this webinar, in which our two speakers — Leo Celi and Kianoush Kashani — will present on the theme of Digital Determinants of Health, with a focus on artificial intelligence (AI) and the need for equity-focused innovation. The webinar will be held on 14th of March 2024 — World Kidney Day — which this year focuses on “Advancing equitable access to care and optimal medication practice”. In their Comment “Digital determinants of health: opportunities and risks amidst health inequities”, Leo Celi and colleagues argue that given the current digital revolution, digital tools and AI applications in health care must be developed with equity at the forefront to avoid perpetuating historical biases and inequities. With their Consensus Statement on “Digital health and acute kidney injury”, Kianoush Kashani and colleagues highlight some of the potential applications of digital health tools in nephrology, as well as the need for equitable digitization.
