Bonjour chers parents et tuteurs,
Vous trouverez ci-dessous un message de l'Université de Toronto (en anglais) à propos d'un programme d'été offert avec UPEI, et ouvert aux élèves de 10e à 12e année.
Healthcare of the Future Summer Program:
Introducing Artificial Intelligence to Tomorrow’s Healthcare Practitioners and Coders
Dear Student and Parents,
I hope this letter finds you well. We are writing to let you know about an innovative summer program aimed at high school students (grades 10-12) interested in healthcare and artificial intelligence (AI). As AI is increasingly integrated in healthcare, it is essential to equip the next
generation of healthcare professionals, digital innovators, and computer scientists with the knowledge and skills needed for this rapidly evolving field. This program will also introduce students to related undergraduate programs at UPEI and provide students a competitive edge in
applying for undergraduate and medical programs.
Our program: a 1-week program for 30 high school students jointly run by UPEI and the University of Toronto. The program will be delivered in person at UPEI and facilitated by two TCAIREM Education leads (University of Toronto MD/PhD students). The program covers what is AI and how AI will shape medicine. Specifically, in the program, we will:
• Introduce students to basics of AI and machine learning (ML)
• Introduce students to coding (Python)
• Highlight real-world applications of AI in healthcare
• Inspire participants to consider careers in healthcare, technology, and innovation
The program has been designed for students interested in careers in medicine and/or technology.
Program Dates: August 18-22nd in the mornings (9am-2pm) at UPEI.
Registration: Please see our website

(deadline: June 30, 2025).
Please reach out if you any further questions.
Sincerely,
Gemma Postill, MD/PhD Candidate
