Podcast: The Digital Cancer Twin Podcast

The Digital Cancer Twin Podcast comes out of a interdisciplinary collaboration between Queen’s School of Computing and School of Religion to investigate the ethical, social, philosophical and technical implications of the cutting edge AI cancer diagnostic technology that is being developed at Queen’s.
