“AMS Healthcare was the first funder to believe in my research vision. Being awarded the 2022 Fellowship in Compassion and AI was the catalyst that launched my research program on digital health equity and healthcare access for immigrants and refugees to Canada. What began as a one-year project has grown into a thriving portfolio of research with multiple funded projects, a dedicated team of emerging scholars who are deeply committed to this work, and sustained community partnerships. What sets AMS apart is their ongoing commitment to the visibility, leadership, and long-term success of all Fellows- an investment that continues to shape my journey as a scholar in ways few funders have.”

“Participation in the AMS‑Fitzgerald Fellowship in AI and Human‑Centred Leadership has been pivotal to my professional growth, equipping me to contribute to system‑wide digital transformation in Ontario. The program’s human‑centred ethos, focusing on people and communities with a commitment to compassion and equity along with its rich community of practice provided the ethical framework and expertise needed to implement AI innovations such as chatbots and scribe technologies. I am grateful to AMS Healthcare for fostering leaders capable of advancing human‑centred AI.”

“One of AMS Healthcare’s biggest impacts stems from its diverse community of people who are connected by their passion for leveraging technology and AI to improve healthcare in Ontario. AMS has given me far more than access to funding, training, and coaching; it has offered encouragement, belonging, and a sense of shared purpose. This support has already shaped my research in meaningful ways, and it will continue to inspire and guide my work for years to come.”

“The AMS fellowship has enabled me to gain the technical and translational skills needed to advance research at the intersection of cutting-edge AI and human-centred design. This opportunity has been instrumental in shaping my role as a leader in compassionate and engaging pediatric pain care. It also created a wonderful community of practice of like-minded researchers striving to enhance compassionate care in digital and AI driven health care solutions.”
