Edinburgh Science Festival Event: Can Robots Care?

About the event

Robots have escaped the factory floors they were originally designed for. Today we're likely to encounter them in diverse settings, including increasingly health and care.

Join us to discuss the latest developments in assistive and care robots and discuss what's at stake for people working in and relying on health and care services. We'll talk about how robots might reshape care practices, from surgery to rehabilitation to managing chronic conditions.

Attendees are also invited to join an informal 'knowledge café' at 4pm to meet the panellists beforehand and start the conversation.

Presented by The University of Edinburgh
