Earn an online certificate in healthcare AI

January 13, 2021


Mark KohlerWATERLOO – NIHI and McMaster University are together offering an online, certificate course in artificial intelligence in healthcare. The three-module course serves as an introduction to AI in healthcare, with perspectives on the technology, regulatory and governance issues, and real-world examples of its implementation.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is poised to make a huge impact on healthcare delivery and patient care. Participants completing this course will gain a comprehensive understanding of the main areas of AI within the context of health care and the data management supply chain systems found in health care.

Throughout the course, we will review real-world examples, along with articles and perspectives of thought leaders. Many of the weekly sessions will include a dedicated discussion of the “applications” and potential “implications” for the use of AI in health care covered in that session’s topics.

This course will:

  • Explore related fields, including the use of robotic technologies, clinical decision support, electronic medical records, and more.
  • Cover various ethical issues raised from the use of AI in the future, and other important considerations such as: regulations, data privacy, cybersecurity and data protection, and AI in contrast to public health policy aims.
  • Discuss the application of new AI technologies to various stakeholders’ views of value, including clinicians, patients, vendors, payers, and even the investment community and capital markets.
  • Use real-world examples, exemplar articles and perspectives of experts and thought leaders.
  • Include discussions of the “applications” and potential “implications” for the use of AI in health care in many of the sessions.
