A Digital Cure for Healthcare

On this episode of RBC Disruptors, John Stackhouse is joined by Valerie Pisano, CEO of MILA in Montreal, and Abhinav Sharma of McGill University to discuss Canadian innovations in AI and machine learning for healthcare delivery, progress in the development of digital contact tracing applications, and the importance of healthcare professionals working hand in hand with technology.

Key Takeaways:

  • What will the patient experience look like in 2030?
  • Technology is going to increasingly shape healthcare. But without the human adoption of technology, we'll never see its potential
  • How do we navigate data and privacy concerns, while understanding the benefits of these innovations?
  • How can we ensure that Canadian healthcare innovations are global in their ambition?
