Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform healthcare; however, translating promising research into real-world clinical tools is a lengthy and challenging process. 

In this talk, Sebastian Goodfellow shares the ongoing journey of developing an AI-powered decision support system to detect and diagnose life-threatening heart arrhythmias in critically ill children. From early research and prototypes to silent trials and regulatory approval, he explores the path toward clinical adoption within the Canadian healthcare landscape. 

Join us on December 3, 2025, at our monthly Skule™ Lunch & Learn.
