AI IN MEDICAL
EDUCATION
A META VIEW TO START A
CONVERSATION
Philip E. Bourne PhD, FACMI, February 26, 2024. /pebourne
 I have no formal medical school
training
 I was the first Chief Data Officer
of NIH
 I have taught many pharmacy
students
 I tend to see everything through
the lens of data
 AI is only part of the story
 I complained that medical school
curricula were not in keeping with
DISCLAIMER/BIA
S
THE (NON-MEDICAL) STUDENTS HAVE
SPOKEN
 Its here, its a tool
 A tool like never before
 How to relate to the honor code
 Dont get caught up in the hype
 Wish professors knew more
 Want to know more about the
implications
Soon to be posted
HOW DID WE GET HERE?
 AI consumes data of all types:
90% of the worlds data was
generated in the last 2 years 
Medical data is a mess  Kudos
to GW Bush
 Improved computer technology 
UVA was behind but is catching
up
 Breakthroughs in algorithms and
hence software providing
persistent models  This has got
everyone's attention
A zetabyte is 1012 gigabytes
CONSIDER OUR FAVORITE
EXAMPLE -
 ChatGPT is one of many forms of AI  A Large Language
Model
 G generative  ability to generate language,
images, video, code 
 P pre-trained  unsupervised learning on vast
amounts of content
 The training is done by neural networks that mimic
the brain  learning by adjusting weights of each
neuron/node). Training stops when the right result is
achieved. That network is then a model that can
produce {mostly} the right answer from data it has
never seen before
 T Transformers allow for parallel computation and
treats text etc. as tokens
ChatGPT
 Diagnostic and image analysis
 Predictive analytics
 Personalized medicine
 Drug discovery
 Robot assisted surgery
 Virtual health assistants
 Clinical trials research
 Wearables
 Healthcare operations
 Mental health applications
THE NOW -
EXAMPLES
WHERE ARE WE HEADED?
The current deep neural networks are
equivalent to a rice grained size of the
cerebral cortex and we are yet to explore
most aspects of brain morphology

What Does This Mean in
Practical Terms with AI
 AR changes the student-
student; student-patient
dynamic
 LLMs provide a rich training
ground
 Student-mentor
relationships will be
different, but remain
important.

RESEARCH
A Biomedical Researcher
The Holy Grail of Molecular Biology
Food production
Energy production
Drugs 
 Achieved by DeepMind (a Google
spin off) not academia
 30 interdisciplinary scientists
working together not competing
 Compute power beyond a
university
THREATS
OPPORTUNITIES
Creating a new health care industry
How Disruptive Will It Be?
THE 6 DS (PETER DIAMANDIS)
Digitization
Disruption
Demonetization
Dematerialization
Democratization
Time
Volume,
Velocity,
Variety
Digital media becomes bona fide
form of communication
Deception
KODAK  A 6DS CASE STUDY
Digital media becomes bona fide
form of communication
WILL HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF?
MEDICINE
Digitization

Disruption
Demonetization
Dematerialization
Democratization
Time
Volume,
Velocity,
Variety
AI impact minimal
Models reach human capacity
Augmented reality, sensors
Quantum computing
Digital media becomes bona fide
form of communication
Learning modalities change
Knowledge workers must adapt
job market shifts
Robotics
Research practice changes
THANK YOU
