Artificial intelligence is an exciting field sp anning computer science\, engineering\, mathematics\, and statistics. In r ecent years\, it has become a hot topic that promises to revolutionize man y aspects of our daily lives ranging from our cars to our health. However\ , only a few truly understand what artificial intelligence represents\, an d how it can be helpful in our professional lives.
\nProfessor Sejdi ć will address a question that we often ask ourselves: Will artificial int elligence replace my clinician? He will also cover some of recent developm ents dealing with artificial intelligence and dysphagia\, a swallowing dis order caused by a variety of neurological conditions (e.g.\, stroke\, cere bral palsy\, Parkinson’s disease)\, head and neck cancer\, genetic syndrom es\, and iatrogenic conditions or trauma. A recently proposed field called computational deglutition is a collaboration between clinicians and the d ata science community aimed at the development of clinically relevant algo rithms that will aid clinicians during the assessment and treatment of swa llowing disorders.

strong> for a special edition of Disruptors & Dilemmas\, featuring alumni and faculty from U of T Engineering\, the Leslie Dan Faculty of Pharmacy\, and the University of
Toronto Mississauga. The Future of Vaccine P
roduction: Giving Canadian Biomanufacturing a Shot in the Arm The COVID-19 pandemic exposed gaps in Canada’s preparedness to a
ddress great challenges in the biomanufacturing space\, including domestic
production of vaccines. Disruptors & Dilemmas asks a panel of multi-disci
plinary experts to provide their insights on Canada’s response to COVID-19
\, and how the fields of chemistry\, engineering\, and pharmacy are equipp
ed to address future global crises. Through exciting initiatives at the Un
iversity of Toronto and beyond\, our alumni and faculty hold the keys to u
nlocking the power of Canadian biomanufacturing to ensure that we are a wo
rld leader for the next great challenge. This free virtual speaker
panel will be moderated by Claire Kennedy\, Co-Chair of the Defy Gravity
Campaign and Former Chair of University of Toronto’s Governing Council. Gu
