This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Medicine, AIME 2023, held in Portoroz, Slovenia, in June12–15, 2023. The 23 full papers and 21 short papers presented together with 3 demonstration papers were selected from 108 submissions. The papers are grouped in topical sections on: machine learning and deep learning; explainability and transfer learning; natural language processing; image analysis and signal analysis; data analysis and statistical models; knowledge representation and decision support.

This important new work will help department chairs, faculty, and administrators understand and address the increasing complexity of relationships within higher education, as well as the growing influence of external factors. The Department Chair as Academic Leader is a completely updated revision of Allan Tucker's seminal contribution, Chairing the Academic Department, last published in 1992. This work reflects the approach used in the ACE Workshops for Division and Department Chairs and Deans.
