Preview medicine’s data-augmented future with physician-level data science skills and machine intelligence literacy.
This course has been co-developed by experts in AIArtificial Intelligence from the College of Computer & Cyber Sciences, and experts in healthcare and medical education from the Medical College of Georgia.
By incorporating multi-media teaching methods with small group and asynchronous learning opportunities we equip learners with the AI literacy requisite to answer these and other questions:
Learners will engage in scholarly discourse focused on key theoretical and applied AI references, and all will use the IBM Watson Studio platform to run datasets through various AI algorithms.
At the end of this course overview module, you will be able to:
Dr. Doug Miller
A medical graduate of McGill University, Dr. Doug Miller was trained in cardiovascular medicine at Emory University and Harvard University. Having published >200 original papers and book chapters in the field, Dr. Miller enjoys a global reputation as a cardiologist and leader in academic medicine. Unique among his peers, Dr. Miller served over a decade as the dean of three research-intensive medical schools in the U.S. and Canada, while also overseeing operations of three successful med-tech incubators. As an MBA (Saint Louis University) and an executive program certificate holder (UC Berkeley, Harvard Business School), Dr. Miller provides board service to several global health policy and biomedical business organizations. An entrepreneur holding three U.S. patents in the fields of pharmaceutical R&D, medical imaging and artificial intelligence (AI), in 2018 Dr. Miller became the Medical College of Georgia Senior Associate Dean for Academic Affairs. Dr. Miller’s 2018 publications in high impact journals and invited lectures make him a leading authority on AI applications to healthcare, medical imaging and bioinformatics.
