Roundtable Co-Host:

Driving Excellence in Healthcare Management - The Sandra Rotman Centre for Health Sector Strategy is a research, education and policy centre aimed at generating insights for governments, organizations and other key stakeholders facing complex healthcare challenges.

Roundtable Co-host:

The TD Management Data and Analytics Lab promotes cutting-edge analytic tools in business through teaching and research and is a central source of knowledge and expertise in data science, AI, and machine learning applications.

Any potential improvement to a healthcare system is complex, as services rely on an ecosystem of workflows, products, and people. Join us for a series of presentations by faculty at the Rotman School of Management who discuss their research and key findings focused on health sector improvement – topics range from reducing surgical wait times and exploring patient/AI interactions to predicting heart attack incidence and improving work design for dialysis clinics.
