Intersections - 3 Talks in Succession
MARZYEH GHASSEMI
Healthcare runs on human-based algorithms, that routinely misdiagnose, mistreat, and mislead patients about their care. But what if mistakes aren't bad? What if we could learn from these mistakes? And what does artificial intelligence have to do with it? Marzyeh Ghassemi's talk will delve into how the machine learning revolution can be applied in a healthcare setting, to improve medical care and create actionable insights in human health.
ANNA GOLDENBERG
Making decisions in the healthcare sector relies on crucial tools designed to provide the best care for patients, but advances in artificial intelligence are shifting the way we think about preventative care. Join Dr. Anna Goldenberg as she discusses how we can redesign our tried-and-true procedures and outdated policies to make better data-driven decisions for disease prevention, prediction, and treatment.
NATHAN GOLD
Medical decision making is, at its core, a data-driven endeavor. However, traditional data acquisition methods are often expensive and time-consuming. In his talk, Nathan Gold will shed light on technology's role in alleviating this problem. His presentation will discuss new techniques being developed in his lab that utilize a combination of mathematical modelling, machine learning, and physical insight to visualize the flow of blood under the skin using conventional camera technology.
