Medcial Biophysics researcher Dr. Jason Lerch will be contributing to a panel of speakers at the 'Medicine Meets Machine: The Emerging Role of AI in Healthcare' panel, presented by the Raw Talk Podcast as a part of their 'Raw Talk Live' series. The event is being held on May 7, 2019 at 5:00 PM in MaRS Centre West Tower, 66 University Ave, Suite 1300.

Dr. Lerch uses neuroimaging and mouse models to understand the changing brain and he will be sharing his insights as they relate to the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in medicine through the lens of his research.

About the panel discussion
AI is increasingly being used in medicine. This has led to the development of cutting-edge treatments and diagnostic tools. However, a lack of understanding of AI often results in either misplaced distrust in its use, or disregard for potential limitations and ethical consequences. We believe that increasing public engagement and modernizing methods of scientific communication are key ways in which this can be addressed. Join Raw Talk Podcast in exploring this topic with two distinct panels on: 1) Current Applications & Limitations of AI in Medicine and 2) Ethical & Future Considerations of AI in Medicine. Our panelists will share diverse perspectives from healthcare, academia, industry, and policy development.
