Join The Boston Globe for the third annual Future of Medicine Summit, an in-person event at the forefront of medical innovation.

Session Spotlight | Say More Live Podcast with Dr. Dhruv Khullar, Physician-Journalist and Health Policy Expert
As AI reshapes diagnosis, documentation, and clinical decision-making, Dr. Dhruv Khullar joins Say More to examine the doctor's evolving role in an increasingly automated system. We'll explore where AI strengthens and weakens medicine, and how the rush to adopt new technology may be widening the trust gap between doctors and patients.

Rhode Map Live
Thursday, September 17 | 5:30 - 7:30 p.m. CIC Providence, 225 Dyer St. | Providence, RI
AI is coming for Rhode Island’s workforce—but what that means depends on how well we prepare workers, students, businesses and policymakers for the changes ahead. Which jobs will be transformed or eliminated? What new opportunities will emerge? Are our schools and colleges teaching the skills people will need to succeed? And how can Rhode Island make sure the AI revolution creates opportunity here rather than leaving workers behind?
Join us as we bring together leaders from government, higher education, cybersecurity and the technology sector to explore what AI could mean for Rhode Island—and what we should be doing now to prepare for it.

Behind the Screen: Baby Doe
Wednesday, September 23 | 6:30 p.m. West Newton Cinema, 1296 Washington St. | West Newton
Thirty years ago, Gail Ritchey, a young woman from a conservative Christian community in rural Ohio, had a stillborn birth alone and left the evidence in the woods. Now a devoted mother of three, her quiet suburban life is shattered when DNA evidence links her to the infamous cold case of “Geauga’s Child,” leading to her arrest for murder. Facing a possible life sentence, Gail must confront the weight of societal and religious pressures—and her own long-buried shame—to fight for her freedom.
Following the screening, join a conversation with director Jessica Earnshaw and WBUR host Deborah Becker on the making of the film and the questions it raises about maternal mental health, the criminal justice system, and the untold stories of women in crisis.
