AI Math with Public Health Applications Workshop
Join us for the AI Math with Public Health Applications Workshop with Jean-Jacques Rousseau!
This workshop is designed for senior high school students (18 years old and over) and undergraduate students from any discipline who are eager to explore the intersection of mathematics and artificial intelligence in the context of public health. Led by expert instructor Jean-Jacques Rousseau, participants will delve into the fundamentals of machine learning, focusing on supervised learning techniques. The workshop centres around a practical application: using AI to predict outbreak risks for communicable diseases, highlighting its critical role in enhancing public health preparedness. No prior experience in AI or programming is required; the curriculum is tailored for learners encountering this material for the first time. By the end of the workshop, attendees will have gained proficiency in essential mathematical concepts such as functions, linear algebra, probability, and calculus, essential for understanding AI applications in public health. This program is ideal for students interested in pursuing STEM degrees, exploring career opportunities in AI, or simply curious about the transformative potential of AI in healthcare. Developed by Black instructors, the workshop promises a supportive and inclusive environment aimed at nurturing diverse talent in AI and mathematics. Spaces are limited, so register now to secure your place and embark on a journey into the dynamic fields of AI and public health.
The workshop runs Monday August 12 to Friday August 16 from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. ET
