Illness Narratives and Patient Perspectives: Cultivating Deep Listening Skills
November 5-12, 2025The first step in better understanding stories of illness is to listen — and deep listening is an invaluable skill that can be developed with practice.
What does it mean to listen from a place of full presence? To be a witness to stories of suffering? The impact of deep listening in healthcare is profound: when patients feel truly heard, their experiences are validated, practitioners feel more connected to their patients, and opportunities for better care emerge.
When we learn how to listen, we can begin to identify different types of illness narratives and how to best respond to them with empathy, equanimity, and individualized care, as well as the space to sit with our own reactions.
In this workshop, we will explore what it means to really listen, and strengthen that muscle together in practice. Through close reading of literary and artistic texts, we will encounter different types of illness narratives from the patient perspective, seeing the patient as an expert in their experience and a collaborator in the healing process: key tenets of narrative-based medicine. We will also unpack what happens when we receive these stories of suffering.
This workshop also offers a supportive environment for empathic listening in which to write and share illness stories we have witnessed or our own personal illness narratives.

Applied AI in Medicine: From Coding to Implementation
Oct. 17 - Nov. 16, 2025Artificial intelligence (AI) offers exciting prospects for future healthcare delivery. Deploying AI can help us improve medical consultations, design personalized treatment plans, and deliver precision medicine. We can implement AI in novel and ethical ways in order to build a healthcare system that works for the 21st century.
Designed as an intensive and interactive survey of AI in health and medical contexts, the Applied AI in Medicine: From Coding to Implementation certificate program will equip you with the necessary tools and knowledge to apply AI in your own field of expertise — whether that is in the hospital, clinic, or laboratory.
With a focus on applied learning through exercises and examples relevant to medicine, you will first learn about the different types of AI architectures, the ethics of AI in medicine, and opportunities for applied AI in medicine. You will then practice programming in Python and gain expertise with this essential language used to code AI applications. Finally, you will become familiar with the unique features of common Python libraries and use them to implement AI applications.
