On 27 July 2026, the Centre of Biotechnology of Sfax (CBS) hosted a HERACLES local workshop in Sfax, Tunisia, bringing together healthcare professionals, researchers and AI experts for a hands-on exchange on the role of health data in AI-driven healthcare.

The event explored how reliable and responsible AI solutions can respond to real healthcare needs, with particular attention to data requirements, possible use cases and ethical and regulatory aspects.

A participatory round table also gave participants the opportunity to share perspectives and practical recommendations, contributing directly to the development of the HERACLES Knowledge Hub and the wider Transnational Research Network.
