To Provide Better Patient Care
AI is already revolutionizing听patient care in many ways! It can be used to:
- Tailor communications to the individual's unique medical history, condition, and preferences, thus helping them understand medical jargon, treatment details and insurance policies
- Help patients with dietary and lifestyle choices by chatting with a Gen AI-powered chatbot
- Help healthcare professionals articulate complex medical queries conversationally and distill long research papers and clinical documents into clear summaries, aiding swift comprehension
To Enhance Teaching and Learning
Generative AI can be used in classroom, lab, and clinical educational settings to achieve the following:
- Assist faculty in developing the following tools and instruments:
- Syllabi (Teaching and Learning Center鈥檚听Course Syllabus Guide)
- Course outcomes
- Assessments
- Rubrics
- Case studies
- Images and other visual elements to use in teaching and research
- Explore facets of Scholarship of Teaching of Learning (SoTL):
- Best practices for developing research questions, literature reviews, and other related aspects of designing and writing a study
- Discover links to resources about current trends in generative AI as they relate to education, including articles, webinars, books, and workshops
- Use links for assistance to better communicate generative AI expectations to their students
To Conduct Research
The pace at which data is being generated, which is exponentially increasing, is far exceeding our expert ability to make sense of the data.听听That鈥檚 where generative AI and other AI methods could become extremely useful to help uncover the regularities, commonalities, and differences in all this data in a way that is less biased and also more efficient and faster than what humans can do.
Some of the more useful features of AI to help make research more efficient are:
- hypothesis generation
- code generation
Authorship and AI tools
