About This Course
AI Ethics and Explainable AI in Healthcare joins two essentials for clinical AI: it must be both ethical and explainable. You learn the interpretability methods that open the black box of medical models — feature attribution, SHAP, saliency and case-based explanation — and why explainability is non-negotiable when clinicians and patients must trust a decision. The course pairs this with the ethical pillars of clinical AI: fairness, safety, consent and accountability. You finish able to make a healthcare AI system explainable and ethically sound. A verified e-Certificate of competency and e-Marksheet from the Deep Science & Technology Consortium.
