About

Malik Sallam is a leading researcher at the intersection of artificial intelligence, healthcare, and psychometrics, with a particular focus on how emerging technologies reshape palliative care and medical practice. His most impactful work, "Artificial Intelligence-Powered Robotic Technology for Transforming Palliative Care" (2025, 8 citations), addresses critical global challenges such as workforce shortages and inconsistent care quality, proposing innovative AI-driven solutions to enhance the quality of life for patients with life-threatening illnesses. Sallam also contributes to the psychological dimensions of human-AI interaction, as demonstrated by his Arabic translation and validation of the Fear of Autonomous Robots and Artificial Intelligence (FARAI) scale (2023, 4 citations), a crucial tool for cross-cultural research on technology acceptance. His forward-looking study, "Mapping Medical Specialty Vulnerability to Superintelligent AI" (2025, 1 citation), introduces a competency-guided framework using generative AI to assess which medical specialties face the highest risk of disruption, offering a strategic roadmap for workforce planning. Through these contributions, Sallam bridges technical innovation with human-centered care, making his work essential reading for students and researchers exploring the ethical, psychological, and practical implications of AI in medicine.
