Game Theory and Its Application to Medicine

Sponsored by NYACP's Hudson Valley South District

What if you could approach clinical decision-making—and even conflict—through an entirely new lens? NYACP’s Hudson Valley South District invites you to join them for an interactive discussion on how game and information theory apply to modern medical practice.

Medicine isn't just biology - it's a constant negotiation with uncertainty and human behavior. Information theory helps us make sense of noisy signals: labs, imaging, symptoms - all imperfect clues in a high-stakes puzzle. Game theory zooms out to the human layer, where patients, clinicians, and systems make moves based on incentives, fears, and expectations. 

This session is designed to shift your perspective, strengthen your reasoning, and offer practical strategies for navigating complex healthcare environments.

Host: Christopher K. Migliore, MD, MS, FACP, FHM

NYACP Book Club

Sponsored by NYACP's Well Being Committee

What Art Does: An Unfinished Theory by Brian Eno and Bette Adriaanse is a brief and thought-provoking exploration of what makes something “art” and why art has been part of human life for as long as there have been human beings. It is a chance to understand how art is made by all of us and how it creates communities, opens our worlds, and can transform us.

Why Attend?

•    We will explore the author's hope for the book, that it causes us to reassess the value of these two things: playing and feeling.
•    We hope the discussion will lead us to appreciate art in everyday life, rediscover play, and embrace feeling.
•    Engage in meaningful discussion with a supportive community.

Host: Daniel Pomerantz, MD, MACP
