AI in Clinical Medicine

This is a three-day online course taught in real time. 

• Day 1-2: June 11, 12
• Day 3: June 15

Clinicians who are already familiar with AI concepts, or who have previously completed the AI in Clinical Medicine course, may wish to enroll in only the final day. Over the last few decades, the digitization of medical records created opportunities for automation and data-driven clinical support for a range of routine clinical applications. Today, artificial intelligence (AI) is accelerating innovation in health care. We are on the cusp of revolutionizing how we care for patients in profound ways.  

New technologies are available now to help you impact your practice. AI medical scribes, new research tools and diagnostic tests, and personalized treatment options are just a few applications of AI that are beginning to have a direct impact on clinicians and the patients they serve.  

Up until now, most health care providers have not received formal training in artificial intelligence. Recognizing that now is the time for physicians, nurses, advanced practice providers, and all allied health professionals to prepare for how AI is changing medical care, Harvard Medical School is offering this new continuing education course, AI in Medicine.  

This live virtual course focuses on cutting edge and exciting new applications of AI, including foundational principles and lessons learned that you will be able to take directly back to your practice. Over three days, you will hear from medical society leaders, academic leaders, and innovators from academia and industry.  

Sessions will delve into the applications of AI in diagnosing diseases, predicting patient outcomes, patient monitoring, and personalizing treatment plans. Through lectures, field-specific break-out sessions, and real-world case studies, you will acquire the knowledge to harness AI’s potential to advance patient care, research, and health systems innovation. Faculty experts will explore the ethical implications, challenges, and opportunities inherent in integrating AI into modern health care practice.

During this course, we will cut through the hype around AI to provide realistic, firsthand viewpoints into the potential of AI in clinical practice. Health care professionals, including physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and other practitioners, are highly encouraged to join us for this transformational learning experience.
