If you are passionate about AI and healthcare and have an entrepreneurial spirit, we welcome you to the AIProHealth Summer School.
The AIProHealth Summer School offers an intensive learning experience for students, post-docs, junior specialists, and startup employees in AI, medicine, and business who focus on innovation in medical technology. At the event you will learn about AI's technical, ethical, and legal aspects in healthcare and gain entrepreneurial experience in getting AI into the healthcare market.
In the on-site programme in Tartu on 11–15 August, you will receive lectures from experts, have guided discussions, and put everything into practice in a hackathon.
Tõnu Runnel has founded multiple internet & design companies since the end of the 1990s when he was still at high school. He has exited them all and is now a writer and photographer, occasionally speaking about urbanism, design, tech or photography. At our summer school he's taking up his oldest topic in a renewed form — why and how do design and branding matter for upstart companies.
