We have electric eels, which technically means we also have magnetic eels, and I’m wondering why no one talks about that.

The ✨Summer of Vibes✨ uses a different strategy to most research programs. We make a lot of mistakes by moving quickly. On purpose.

However, we also make a lot of products.

Take all the products and correct the errors, what you end up with is a *lot* of stuff that works.

The first modules are for med students.

We’re building a research program around this tool, so check that out to get involved

✅ Medical students: Participate in a research study to test it (free) https://t.co/y0kzCiWeQV

✅ Everyone else: Let me know your thoughts or DM me

[Joshua Landy MD 💉 @joshualandy]

news from SHNRI: I’m working with @Samir_Grover to study how AI can teach medical students.

Our first tool is a virtual standardized patient, and med students can try it for free right now—for science! 🧪

AI tools for medicine are everywhere, but many are so specialized that it’s hard for most people to imagine using them.

We wanted to change that. Our tool is designed to help every medical learner—student or graduate—build essential skills.

[Samir C. Grover, M.D. @Samir_Grover]

Are you a medical student interested in technology?

Please consider participating in our study evaluating a virtual standardized patient program!

Also gives you access to a cool new tool with virtual clinical scenarios.

Hi everybody, I’m trying something new: I’m building a new AI tool to teach Medicine. We don’t have a name for it yet, but if you’re a medical student, you can try it.
Thanks to Scarborough Health Network Research Institute, we’re studying how it performs.

[Joshua Landy MD 💉 @joshualandy]

What’s the product? It’s an AI-powered interview with a standardized patient.
If you went to med school, you can skip ahead. For everyone else: A standardized patient is an actor pretending to be a patient. They learn a script, answers, & even use props/costumes.

@ToKTeacher No lol that’s a baited question

[Joshua Landy MD 💉 @joshualandy]

@critconcepts @nickmmark I kinda like it. It’s intuitive if you’re using it to answer the question “should I give iron?”

[Joshua Landy MD 💉 @joshualandy]

@doctorsaluja @WilliamAird4 UIBC is analogous to the amount of empty space on your transferrin molecules. If it’s high, there’s a lot of space, so you should administer (bioavailable) iron.

When we launched Pathway, everyone told us we were crazy.

One of the biggest sources of discontent is a mental motion that many do continually:

Planning what decision you will make ahead of when the time comes to make the decision.

@eshear @liron You cannot tell if it’s random without the codex. Without it, both strings have the same entropy and are equivalent in info theory. Hope that helps
