Course Objectives: | The aim of this course is for students to gain fundamental knowledge about artificial intelligence and digital technologies in health sciences. The course covers various digital health technologies, from health informatics systems and AI applications to mobile health solutions and big data analytics, offering students the opportunity to understand the digital transformation of modern healthcare. Additionally, students will learn about critical topics such as accessibility, data security, and ethical issues in digital health technologies, developing the knowledge and skills necessary to implement these technologies effectively and safely. |
Course Content: | The course focuses on the use of digital technologies in the healthcare sector. It begins by covering the fundamentals of health informatics systems, digital transformation, and innovation processes. In this context, students will learn about telemedicine and telehealth applications, gaining an understanding of the role of mobile health and wearable technologies in healthcare services. Students will acquire knowledge about advanced digital technologies such as big data analytics and AI applications, exploring the solutions these technologies offer in the healthcare field. In the later stages, the course will cover the use of robotic systems and automation technologies with examples from healthcare services, as well as data security and privacy issues. During this process, students will analyze digital health policies at both national and international levels, assessing their impact on healthcare systems. Additionally, the course will focus on accessibility and universal design principles, emphasizing how digital health services can be made accessible to all individuals. In the final sections, interactions with emerging technologies like virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) will be discussed, and their applications in healthcare will be explored. The course will conclude with student project presentations and a comprehensive evaluation. |
