Celebrating ‘inspiration’ and ‘inclusion’ for International Women’s Day: Leaders and changemakers in AI
MBZUAI is highlighting five female leaders in AI for International Women’s Day, noting its 28% female student body. Dr. Farida Al Hosani is developing an AI healthcare solution for non-communicable diseases and was appointed VP of MBZUAI’s Alumni Advisory Board. Dr. Hanan Aldarmaki focuses on improving Arabic automated speech recognition and recently won an award for a paper on Arabic speech processing. Why it matters: Showcasing women in AI leadership helps promote diversity and inclusion in the field, especially in the context of the rapidly growing AI ecosystem in the UAE.
