What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

The purpose of the TEACH-AI study is to assess whether a brief, structured workshop on artificial intelligence can improve the performance of medicine doctors in training (i.e. residents) in their diagnostic and management reasoning.

In this multi-site randomized controlled trial, internal medicine and family medicine residents are assigned either to receive an in-person workshop on safe, effective LLM use before a standardized AI-assisted assessment, or to complete the same assessment before receiving the workshop. Residents will review clinical cases that are fully synthetic, no protected health information is used, using a password protected LLM interface.

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?

This trial is for doctors in training (residents) in internal medicine or family medicine. Participants must be able to attend an in-person workshop and complete assessments using a secure AI tool.
