Learning Pathway #1: Introduction to AI in Healthcare

In this transformative journey, Dr. Sérgio Laranjo, Deputy Director of the Digital Data Design Institute at Nova SBE and NOVA Medical School, offers a clear and critical reflection on how AI is transforming clinical practice, medical education, and health systems.

Developed in collaboration with the Digital Data Design (D^3) Institute at Harvard, this conversation explores:

  • The real-world use cases of AI in diagnostics, monitoring, and decision support;

  • How different types of AI (ML, DL, NLP) are applied in healthcare settings;

  • The competencies clinicians need to engage meaningfully with these tools;

  •  Key ethical, legal, and practical challenges in implementation and why AI should enhance — not replace — human judgment and empathy.

This conversation is a concise introduction, designed to spark curiosity and informed debate among healthcare professionals, students, and decision-makers navigating the promises and pitfalls of AI.
