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 is a fascinating exploration of how AI is revolutionizing the way we detect and respond to infectious diseases and public health emergencies.

Watch the first session, from September 16, 2024 at 11:00 am ET for a discussion on how AI is being used to predict and prevent future pandemics. Keynote speaker Kamran Khan (Unity Health Toronto and BlueDot) will be joined by IfP member panelists Michelle Murti (Ontario Ministry of Health) and Fahad Razak (Unity Health Toronto).
