Teaching Artificial Intelligence to Medical Students

Among the measures taken by UVVG to modernize the educational process is the pioneering undertaking regarding the introduction of a course on Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (AIM). Such an action has to face several challenges, at three levels, starting from its inclusion in the curricular vision of the university, its positioning in the didactic program as well as the content of the syllabus suitable for medical students. The first part presents the necessity and opportunity of introducing the course in the current context of the rapid growth of AIM applications. The second part refers to the concrete implementation of the introduction of the course in the curriculum, while the last and most developed part is dedicated to the preparation of the syllabus starting from the premises that the field is growing very fast and we should provide the basic knowledge to assure an easy understanding and a smooth assimilation of further developments.
