- The upper-division undergrad course pairs clinical guest lectures (diagnosis workflows, treatment selection, follow-ups) with ML/DL foundations and advanced research topics.
- It emphasizes rigorous evaluation, algorithmic bias, deployment, and auditing.
- The first class asks why radiologists still exist despite 2016 AI predictions, using CheXNet and cross-hospital generalization studies as case material.
