AI in pediatric health: Future proofing the workforce

Approximately 11 children per day are diagnosed with malignant brain tumors, the deadliest form of cancer in children. Amazon Web Services (AWS) and the Children's Brain Tumor Network (CBTN) have laid a foundation in the cloud to harness the power of clinical records, medical imaging, genomics data, digital pathology for multi-modal, and near-real time data. As a result, researchers and clinicians can leverage artificial intelligence to speed development of new therapies and improve lives of children and families struggling with these diagnoses. Critical to this mission is the need for a workforce that is upskilled in cloud, AI, and cybersecurity. In this webinar, you'll hear from Jay Storm, MD, Chair of the Division of Neurosurgery at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) about the origins of CBTN with AWS and his own experiences re-skilling and upskilling throughout his career in pediatric research and the operating room. AWS' Rod Tarrago, MD also shares his perspectives as a former Chief Medical Informatics Officer of two different pediatric hospitals. Dr. Tarrago shares the promise he sees in multi-site consortiums like CBTN where a strong data foundation is their superpower for applying generative AI to further accelerate time to a cure. In addition to Amazon’s AI Ready initiative, that's making AI education accessible to anyone with a desire to learn, you'll also receive an invitation for in-person and virtual chances to get hands on experience applying AI to real world data sets at the AWS Skills Center Arlington during the CBTN Annual Scientific Meeting at HQ2 in October, 2024.
