AI technology and AI tools will change the healthcare landscape. The purpose of this project is two-fold. First, the project aims to understand AI technology's impact on the broader economy coupled with a focus on healthcare, including diagnostics, treatments, drug development and workflow processes. Second, the project aims to understand AI tools that can be used by faculty and students conducting research, such as AI writing, data analysis, and presentation tools.
Role: The student will examine the literature on AI broadly, coupled with a focus on healthcare, and as well as learn and test various AI productivity tools designed to improve the research productivity of faculty and students. The student's key learning outcome will be gaining a better understanding of how AI may impact healthcare and how AI can be used by faculty and students for research.
