- Program Description
Join our immersive hybrid workshop designed specifically for healthcare professionals eager to learn how to help students strengthen their clinical reasoning and diagnostic decision-making.
Through a blend of live online sessions and hands-on guided practice, participants will explore how AI-driven virtual patient scenarios can support deliberate practice, improve diagnostic strategies, and complement traditional clinical training. Using Clinical Mind AI, Stanford's innovative AI platform that simulates real-world patient interactions.
This hands-on series, consisting of three 2-hour live sessions, will guide you from foundational concepts and platform navigation to building customized AI-simulated cases and integrating analytics into your clinical teaching or practice.
Participants will explore how to create realistic patient simulations, design tailored clinical case activities, and interpret performance feedback to enhance learner outcomes. Whether you are a practicing clinician, educator, or clinical trainer, this workshop equips you with practical skills to bring AI-augmented clinical reasoning training into your professional setting. Clinical Mind AI empowers you to elevate traditional education with scalable, adaptable simulations that mirror complex patient scenarios, helping clinicians and learners sharpen their reasoning skills through deliberate practice.Who Should Attend
