It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the 1st International Conference on AI Innovations in Medical Engineering and Robotics Technology (AI-MERT 2025), to be held at the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT), Thailand, on December 18–19, 2025.

AI-MERT 2025 is conceived as a cross-disciplinary forum where artificial intelligence, medical engineering, and robotics meet to advance human health and wellbeing. We aim to bring together researchers, clinicians, engineers, entrepreneurs, and policy makers to exchange ideas, present cutting-edge results, and chart the next decade of intelligent medical and robotic systems—from perception, control, and autonomy to clinical translation, regulatory readiness, and real-world deployment.

Conference program highlights:

• Keynote talks, invited sessions, and oral & poster presentations
• Tutorials & workshops and industry demonstrations
• Student innovation showcase

We particularly welcome contributions that demonstrate end-to-end pipelines (from data to device to bedside), human-centered & ethical AI, safety-critical robotics, and scalable, equitable solutions for diverse healthcare contexts.

On behalf of the Organizing Committee, I warmly invite you to submit your best work and to join us for two days of rigorous discussion and collaboration on AIT’s green campus just outside Bangkok. We are grateful to our partners, sponsors, reviewers, and volunteers whose support makes this event possible.

I look forward to welcoming you to Thailand and to inspiring conversations that will shape the future of AI-enabled medical engineering and robotics.
