AI Clinical Coach

Our Vision

Developing self-reflective thinking habits is essential to effective clinical decision-making, but the training and time to effectively and equitably coach trainees toward a "thinking mindset" don't exist. We aim to create a thinking mindset culture in the bustling environment of teaching hospitals and clinics through a learning-centered integration of AI, metacognitive language, and coaching frameworks into routine clinical practice. Together with our attending physician partners, we will help foster strong thinking skills in medical trainees and aid faculty coaches in teaching them effectively. Our goal is to make this teaching explicit, deliberate, and measurable.

 

Our Thinking Habits Matrix consists of six self-reflective thinking habits that are essential to developing clinical decision-making skills.

Our Product

We developed AI Clinical Coach (AI CliC, pronounced “ay-eye-click”) as a tool to promote the thinking mindset in clinical training and allow teaching about “thinking” explicitly and deliberately. AI CliC uses a thinking rubric to analyze conversations, creating a shared mental model between teacher and learner. It acts as a teaching assistant, providing valuable support to the instructor and documented longitudinal data for the learner.
