Harness the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to elevate modern-day medical treatments
AI plays an increasingly important role in patient treatment. With its ability to accurately predict diseases at early stages, AI is regarded as a powerful tool in today’s healthcare industry.
Since AI offers benefits such as informed patient care, improved patient safety, and innovative treatment options, it isn’t surprising that 56% of clinicians believe that most of their decisions over the next decade will be made using AI-based clinical decision support tools. However, clinicians face a knowledge gap and report the rising need for professionals who understand AI-based technologies and ways of leveraging them for the advantage of healthcare providers and patients.
With a focus on the application of AI in modern-day healthcare, MIT xPRO’s AI in Healthcare: Fundamentals and Applications program is designed to give clinical leaders, healthcare IT professionals, and healthcare entrepreneurs the opportunity to learn how AI technologies can make a difference in patient treatment and enable them to develop innovative solutions to the healthcare challenges of today and tomorrow.
Note: The content of this program assumes previous knowledge of calculus, linear algebra, statistics, and probability. Basic Python experience will also be beneficial.
A basic understanding of artificial AI, machine learning, data science, and AI in healthcare is ideal in order to make the most of this program.
Technical professionals in the healthcare industry: Technical professionals, such as technical product managers, product managers, directors of product, product design managers, engineering managers, technology project managers, directors of engineering, and directors of technology, who are looking to drive the adoption of AI technology in healthcare at their organizations by adding AI products and services to their arsenals so as to empower patient care
Entrepreneurs: Leaders in their organizations’ foray into AI technology in healthcare who are searching for the right AI solutions to impact millions of lives
Clinical leaders: Senior physicians, department chairs, medical directors, chief medical officers, physician service line directors, nurse leaders, hospital administrators, directors of clinical services, and nursing/medical school deans seeking to sharpen their understanding of AI products and methodologies to advance patient care and identify new opportunities emerging from the field
Tech consultants in healthcare: Consultants in hospitals, digital health, pharma, med tech, research, and insurance who are responsible for shaping the AI strategies for organizations and are, therefore, looking to upgrade their knowledge about new technologies, thereby changing the healthcare system
