EDIT AI Seminar Series
Students interface with clinical faculty.
Over the summer, students attend weekly one and a half hour EDIT AI seminar sessions. This provides the opportunity for students to hear from and interface with domain experts. Over this past summer, students listened to over 30 half-hour seminars, featuring the following speakers. Here is an example of the speakers we hosted in 2022, to be updated to 2024:
