Medical Careers in Biotechnology: Uniting Human-Expertise with AI-driven medicine and Healthtech
Sat., March 9, 11 a.m. - 1 p.m.
While clinical physicians are critical for the successful implementation of biotechnology and healthtech, the line between clinicians and biomedical engineers are often considered distinct and inflexible. This panel will explore the dynamic intersection of traditional medical careers with the rapidly advancing fields of biotechnology, artificial intelligence, and health technology. Panelists will speak to the medical education, academic opportunities, and research/business ventures for students looking to connect to physicians, researchers, and coders who incorporate biomedical engineering and AI/AR-driven medicine into their careers.

Exploring Neurodiversity in Medicine and Healthcare
Sun., March 3, 3 - 5 p.m.
Neurodiversity is a concept that recognizes variations in brain function and behavioral traits among individuals as a normal and natural aspect of human diversity. Although the neurodiversity movement has gained mainstream traction, medicine has been slow to acknowledge and accommodate neurodivergence. Raising awareness of neurodivergence in medical school curricula and clinical practice can help reduce barriers for aspiring clinicians with valuable perspectives and lead to the delivery of more informed patient care. Please join us for an enlightening conversation on the current state of neurodiversity in medical school education and healthcare as physicians, medical school administrators, and neurodivergent advocators share their experiences and perspectives.
