One exciting area in which code, technology, and artificial intelligence can make an impact is healthcare—doctors, nurses and other frontline workers depend on the software written by computer scientists!

Let’s hear from Hadas, a software engineer at Microsoft who’s worked on AI-powered healthcare chatbots and COVID-19 symptom checkers.

Think about the following questions, and we’ll regroup for a discussion after the video!

1. How did Hadas combine her love for medicine with her love for technology?

2. What’s a problem you could solve with computer science?

3. How can learning to code help you solve that problem?
