IAMSE Winter 2025 WAS Series

In today's rapidly evolving medical education landscape, one size does not fit all. This five-session series explores how personalized and precision-focused approaches can empower every medical student to succeed. Join leading medical educators in discussing strategies that support the success of every learner, from individual mentorship to data-driven learning support.

Sessions will cover the concept of precision medical education, from big-picture theories to innovative implementation, showing how adaptive learning environments can better meet diverse student needs. The series also emphasizes the critical role of mentorship, coaching, and sponsorship in guiding students towards personal and professional success. Additionally, it highlights pre-matriculation programs as a key strategy for preparing incoming students, enhancing their readiness, confidence, and ability to succeed.

Join us as we explore innovative strategies to personalize medical education, build supportive learning environments, and guide every student towards becoming the best medical practitioner they can be.

This webinar explores the multifaceted role of medical science educators on their individualized professional journey, with an emphasis on their professional functions as coaches, mentors, advisors and sponsors. It begins by distinguishing between coaching, mentoring, and advising. The webinar delves into the specific skills and strategies required for effective coaching, the dynamics of mentor-mentee relationships, and the techniques for providing academic and career advising. Special attention is given to interactions with learners, highlighting the importance of understanding their needs, building trust, and tailoring approaches to individual contexts. Challenges faced by educators in these roles and strategies for overcoming them are discussed. Finally, the webinar will link the Kern National Network (KNN) conceptual framework of flourishing: Character, Caring and Practical Wisdom to the mentor and mentee roles of mentoring and coaching and when appropriate sponsorship.

We will review barriers to effective lifelong learning in the current medical education system. We will next describe the conceptual model of precision education systems which leverages data and technology to improve education, and highlight how these systems can reduce the barriers that were discussed. Finally, we will share use cases of innovations using precision education systems in undergraduate medical education, graduate medical education, and continuing physician development.

This lecture on the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on medicine will seek to establish a foundational understanding of AI and its relevance to medicine and medical education. We will explore AI applications in medicine, emphasizing their potential benefits, and how to integrate AI tools into clinical decision-making processes. Future trends and innovations in AI medicine are discussed, supported by case studies. Ultimately, the lecture aims to empower physicians with the knowledge and skills needed to navigate AI's evolving role in medicine effectively.

This presentation will highlight the importance of a prematriculation program in preparing students for medical school. MERP helps bridge students' knowledge gaps, provides support during the learning process and improves academic performance in medical school. Notably, our students often begin the program with varying levels of basic science knowledge and study skill proficiency. However, after 15 weeks of carefully planned curriculum and our guidance, they enter medical school with increased confidence and preparedness to succeed.
