Discover how AI and engineering are revolutionizing health care—making it more accessible, equitable and efficient for doctors and patients alike!
Canada is grappling with a critical doctor shortage, leaving over six million Canadians without access to a primary care physician. And it’s not hitting everyone equally—marginalized communities are feeling the impact the most.
What if we could use engineering tools to make health care more affordable, accessible and equitable?
Enter human-centered automation. Professor Enid Montague is leading innovative research on designing artificial intelligence (AI) tools that streamline clerical tasks for physicians, giving them more time to focus on their patients. Her work also includes developing chatbot applications to help patients navigate the health-care system or manage their medications. By rethinking health care with engineering and tech, we could stretch limited resources further and build systems that work better for everyone.
