It is universally known that in the medical imaging field, "AI" is still in its infancy, but we believe that as technology matures, not only will it enhance our working efficiency, but it will also aid in improving the accuracy of medical imaging, which will contribute to various treatments for patients with brain diseases. We are convinced that AI, the new advanced technology, will be applied in every aspect of the medical field to serve a better society and benefit mankind.

 

 

(Professor John D. Pollard, BCR Sales Director Anna Zhang)

 

Undoubtedly, the funding of the BCR PhD Scholarship will significantly promote the introduction of medical professional talents. What's more, coupled with the trend of our times, the excellent match of "Talents + AI" will create profound achievements in clinical medicine and denervation in the brain and mind. BCR will operate with the integrity of the purpose of "Developing medicine and dedicating to society" to expand its business based on national health and further explore uncharted territory in the medical field. BCR expects that emerging talents with professional knowledge and a dedication spirit can become a solid foundation for medical development."
