Topics
A planning committee will organize a workshop series to explore opportunities, issues, and concerns with preparing health professionals to maximize the potential of AI to improve the process of HPE. Topics may include:
- Applying AI for accelerating effective IPE and collaborative practice;
- Exploring challenges and opportunities in developing, validating, implementing, and monitoring the use of AI and machine learning algorithms in HPE;
- Understanding potential risks and benefits of AI for improving the educational process;
- Investigating the barriers and facilitators to integrating AI into clinical education; and
- Engaging relevant stakeholders for responsible AI implementation from foundational HPE to continuing education development.
Description
A planning committee of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will organize and conduct a public workshop to explore opportunities, issues, and concerns with preparing health professionals to maximize the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) to improve the process of health professions education. Invited presentations and discussions will involve global audiences in understanding the duality that health professions educators must consider, which is the need for training in AI and the role of AI in training. Invited speakers may present research and relevant issues related to topics such as:
- Applying AI for accelerating effective interprofessional education and collaborative practice;
- Exploring challenges and opportunities in developing, validating, implementing, and monitoring the use of AI and machine learning algorithms in health professions education;
- Understanding potential risks and benefits of AI for improving the educational process (e.g., bias, equity, and burden);
- Investigating the barriers and facilitators to integrating AI into clinical education; and
- Engaging relevant stakeholders for responsible AI implementation from foundational health professional education to continuing education development.
The planning committee will select and invite speakers and discussants and moderate the discussions at the workshop. Following the workshop, a proceedings of the presentations and discussions will be prepared by a designated rapporteur in accordance with institutional guidelines.
