Johns Hopkins established the model for American medical education more than a century ago. Today
@HopkinsMedicine and OpenEvidence announced a collaboration to define what that education should look like in the AI era, and to ground clinical care in the latest evidence.
As AI learns to synthesize the world's medical knowledge in seconds, the clinician's role moves toward clinical judgment, first-principles reasoning, and the human work of caring for patients. The education model Johns Hopkins and OpenEvidence will design builds on those foundations, with a deeper grounding in pathophysiology and evidence-based medicine. Knowing why an ACE inhibitor works is understanding a physician carries through an entire career.
Together we'll also build human-first AI that puts the best available evidence in the context of each patient's medical history and Johns Hopkins' best practices, so clinicians can reason through that information faster and make the best decision for their patient.
Sanjay Desai, Vice Dean for Education at Johns Hopkins Medicine, says AI "invites us back to the bedside."
For the educators here: which skills do you want every trainee to keep sharp?
