Doesn’t matter! The main thing is that you want to be a part of making AI-powered healthcare an achievable reality!
Studies show that men apply for jobs if they fulfill 60% of the criteria on average. Women and other members of marginalized groups, on the other hand, often only apply if they meet all the criteria. So if you might have what it takes, but don’t fulfill all the points in the description above, please apply anyways.
