Transforming health through AI

This academic year, the University of Toronto has been fortunate to have Bruce Schneier as a visiting senior policy fellow with the Schwartz Reisman Institute for Technology and Society (SRI). Schneier is internationally renowned for his work as a public-interest technologist, cybersecurity expert, and New York Times best-selling author. We recently caught up with him to learn how he sees AI evolving, and especially how it could impact medicine in the future. 

One of the highlights of the recent T-CAIREM Conference was a Shark Tank Pitch Competition featuring several innovative start-ups using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to improve healthcare. This year’s winner was solo entrepreneur Connor Kapahi, who recently received his Ph.D from the University of Waterloo’s Institute for Quantum Computing. We caught up with him to learn more about how his innovative medical device could help patients and doctors in the future.

T-CAIREM's upcoming AI in Practice for Medical Residents weekend mini-course offers practical, hands-on exposure to the tools, opportunities, and implications of AI in your medical training and future practice. You’ll leave with strategies to improve productivity during residency and insights into the role AI will play in shaping your specialty.
