For the new Vesalius Museum in Leuven, Cegeka developed an AI-powered chatbot that brings Andreas Vesalius to life for visitors. The experience is designed to make medical heritage, science and healthcare themes more accessible, interactive and engaging.

In this session, Cegeka takes us behind the scenes of the project. For the first time, we’ll show you how, as a visitor, you can ask a question, and you’ll discover how Vesalius understood the body and what science believes today.

The session follows the Vesalius Museum demo and adds another layer to the story. First, we explore the body through digital anatomy. Then, we explore how AI can help translate medical knowledge for visitors, care professionals, researchers and the wider public.
