Seminars
The MEDLI Lab hosts monthly seminars to discuss the latest advances in medical AI. Seminars typically occur on Wednesdays at 10:30am – 12pm ET. The structure of our seminars is a 30-minute primer of the concepts relevant for understanding the paper, a 30-minute presentation by the speaker, and a 30-minute discussion between the speaker and attendees. The first hour (i.e., primer and talk) is recorded and published on YouTube: @medli-lab.
