POSTPONED: International Conference on EPAs

epa conference poster
After careful consideration of the current social, political, and community climate in Minneapolis, the University and the organizing committee have made the difficult decision to postpone this conference for one year. Our goal for the event has always been to foster a global dialogue on advances in competency-based medical education, but we have received feedback from many of our international colleagues that they are unable or unwilling to travel to Minneapolis at this time. To ensure the conference remains a truly inclusive and international forum, we believe it is best to wait until we can plan for the full participation of our global partners.
 
We appreciate your interest in the conference, and we sincerely regret any disruption this may cause to your professional planning. Registration fees will be refunded, and we look forward to welcoming you in 2027.

AI Assessment in Medical Education Symposium

AI Assessment in Medical Education Symposium

November 1, 2024, 9:00 am to 3:00 pm
University of Minnesota
$200 Full-day In Person, lunch included
$100 Webinar (AM Session Only)

“AI is revolutionizing assessment in medical education by automating grading processes and formative feedback, assessing clinical skills, and diagnosing deficits in learner performance. AI-powered virtual patients offer realistic scenarios for practice, enhancing clinical decision-making skills without risking patient safety.

We are bringing experts to the University of Minnesota Medical School on November 1 to focus on the use of generative AI to produce test questions and clinical assessments; machine scoring and analysis of learner responses to audio-video capture of clinical performance in the workplace (e.g., wards, clinics, etc.); and clinical notes. The symposium will take the next step in the evolution of AI applications to medical education to produce physicians of the highest caliber”.

Claudio Violato, PhD, Professor and Assistant Dean for Assessment and Evaluation, University of Minnesota Medical Education Office of Assessment and Evaluation

Join fellow education innovators (MDs, PhDs, faculty, staff, and learners) in exploring how AI is revolutionizing assessment in medical education by automating grading processes and formative feedback, assessing clinical skills, and diagnosing deficits in student performance.

The Symposium will address two main applications in assessment:

Generative AI to produce test questions such as MCQs, constructed-response questions, and clinical cases for OSCEs.

Machine scoring and analysis of student responses to constructed response questions, such as OSCE notes, or audio-video capture of clinical performance in the workplace (e.g., wards, clinics, etc.). 

Additionally, AI-powered virtual patients offer realistic scenarios for practice, enhancing clinical decision-making skills and providing precision feedback without risking patient safety.
