AI Speaker Series: Accelerating Discoveries in Biology & Medicine Using AI

We partnered with the Emerging and Pandemic Infections Consortium (EPIC) and the Temerty Centre for AI Research and Education in Medicine to host a three-part speaker series on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and infectious diseases/public health emergencies.

Moderated by The Globe and Mail's Ivan Semeniuk, this series was a fascinating exploration of how AI is revolutionizing the way we detect and respond to infectious diseases and public health emergencies. All the events were free and offered in a hybrid format.

Click below to watch the third session in the series, from November 19, 2024, for a discussion on accelerating discoveries in biology and medicine using AI. Keynote speaker Cesar de la Fuente (University of Pennsylvania) will be joined by panelists Dionne Aleman (University of Toronto, Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering) and Artem Babaian (University of Toronto, Temerty Faculty of Medicine).

We again hostied a students-only lunch after the session to give students an opportunity to engage and network with our esteemed speaker and panelists.
